But Rainn Wilson's "Juno" audition and fight with Philip Seymour Hoffman were awesome though.<BR/><BR/>Love that Julian Schnabel won for "Diving Bell", Chiwetel Ejiofur for "Talk to Me", and Cate Blanchett for "I'm Not There". I wanted to see Angelina walk up there for actress, but I guess Ellen Page should win one major award this season, since I think she'll just miss out with Oscar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-50402885555909773762008-02-23T19:45:00.000-05:002008-02-23T19:45:00.000-05:00Blanchett may still win tomorrow.If she does she m...Blanchett may still win tomorrow.<BR/>If she does she may say something about Heath.<BR/><BR/>I think Hansard-Irglova will sound better tomorrow. I didn't think they were bad but they looked rushed. I wonder if they were asked to perform at the last minute. I saw them perform on Letterman and they were fantastic. They will be nervous tomorrow, though, because of the huge audience.<BR/><BR/>I really enjoyed the Indies but there was too much Rainn Wilson. And I thought they were smart to skip a funny song for A Mighty Heart. It was also good that they spread the wealth.<BR/><BR/>So is the screenwriter of Before the Devil a man? Or did they show the wrong person.<BR/><BR/>Tang Wei looked lovely. Ang Lee should put her in his next film, no matter what.gabrieloakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00460263240309976652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-24314141632350723402008-02-23T19:41:00.000-05:002008-02-23T19:41:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Justine Crediblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06162582173699407384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-48287111760678417992008-02-23T19:31:00.000-05:002008-02-23T19:31:00.000-05:00the only asses mentioned were the ones shown onscr...the only asses mentioned were the ones <B>shown</B> onscreen.

It's a mercilessly grim film, by far the most unpleasant one I saw at the festival. And in the end I couldn't really figure out what the point of its relentless misery was. I felt drained and angry at the filmmaker after leaving the screening. I was doubly angry after I realized that watching it and then getting caught in traffic prevented me from seeing one of the films I was most looking forward to at the festival, <I>Man on Wire</I>. <BR/><BR/>With a little distance, I recognize that skill that was put into it (though I still ultimately wonder: why?) and especially must admit it's a terrific spotlight for Bello.Brian Darrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17693169310367670898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-5046158983719167592008-02-23T17:43:00.000-05:002008-02-23T17:43:00.000-05:00Is it me or Brad Pitt is going all Robert Redford ...Is it me or Brad Pitt is going all Robert Redford ?
