If They Could Link Me Now!

The Bloggies obviously you should take the time to nominate me for everything. I never make it -- they tend to only honor the blogs with millions of readers in bigger categories and they don't have a "best film blog" category -- but hope spring eternal!

Tie?!!?!

Anne Hathaway tied with Meryl Streep for Best Actress at the BFCA's. Along with this new Golden Globe buzz, can Hathaway really win the Oscar? She gave a great speech.

ANNE HATHAWAY JUST WON!!!

It's Streep versus Hathaway for the win.

That's all.

So a botched Devil Wears Prada reunion?

The BFCA broadcast is really, really depressing me. No wonder people say they hate critics. Everyone seems uncomfortable and embarrassed. I don't blame them.

To paraphrase Nat on these awards in some previous year:

I didn't even know they were on tonight. That's how much I care.

But I do wish I'd been watching for that Streep/Hathaway tie. How fun.

Although, remember, last time there was an actress tie at the BFCA awards (Adams/Williams), neither won the oscar. That could happen again (WINSLET is looming).
