74th Academy Awards, Winners are hugging and sobbing!



Russel Crowe was butted out by Denzel Washington. Halle Berry sobbed into a lot of people on the way to the stage and then into her microphone a good deal during her acceptance speech for Best Actress in a Leading Role. Jennifer Connelly thanked graciously and elegantly after winning Best Supporting Actress. Jim Broadbent was a deserving winner with a short but heartwarming speech nonetheless for his role in Iris. Hobbits got nowhere near the stage today!!! =p Sidney Poitier, Robert Redford and Arthur Hiller were honoured. And Whoopi Goldberg hosted. Ron Howard won Best Director while Christopher Nolan wasn't even nominated for the same category for the amazing film, Memento!!! Crime and treachery!!! Memento lost out Best Editing to Black Hawk Down??? I'm not so outraged with Gosford Park winning Best Original Screenplay eventhough it whacked Memento along the way. =p But of course A Beautiful Mind won Best Picture. It only makes sense that way...

Lord of the Rings won a lot of technical awards though, as did Moulin Rouge...we all gotta learn to share people. =)
