Eine weniger glanzvoll übertriebene Show als in den letzten Jahren lief heute in der Nacht von Sonntag auf Montag im Kodak Theater ab. Mein Highlight war die neue Präsentation was die Schauspieler-Oscar angeht, anstatt einzig den Gewinner des letzten Jahres die Nominierten des gegenwertigen Jahres, gibt es nun für jeden Nominierten einen eigenen ehemaligen Oscar-Gewinner.

Zitat :

Die beste Ansprache kam von Dustin Lance Black der für das beste Originale Drehbuch (Milk) den Oscar entgegennehmen durfte: Oh my God. This was, um. This was not an easy film to make. First off, I have to thank Cleve Jones and Anne Kronenberg and all the real-life people who shared their stories with me. And, um, Gus Van Sant, Sean Penn, Emile Hirsch, Josh Brolin, James Franco, and our entire cast, my producers, Dan Jinks and Bruce Cohen, everyone at Groundswell and Focus, for taking on the challenge of telling this life-saving story. When I was 13 years old, my beautiful mother and my father moved me from a conservative Mormon home in San Antonio, Texas to California and I heard the story of Harvey Milk. And it gave me hope. It gave me the hope to live my life, it gave me the hope to one day live my life openly as who I am and that maybe even I could fall in love and one day get married.

(He chokes up, audience begins to applaud.)

I want to thank my mom who has always loved me for who I am, even when there was pressure not to. But most of all, if Harvey had not been taken from us 30 years ago, I think he’d want me to say to all of the gay and lesbian kids out there tonight who have been told that they are less than by their churches or by the government or by their families that you are beautiful, wonderful creatures of value and that no matter what anyone tells you, God does love you and that very soon, I promise you, you will have equal rights, federally, across this great nation of ours. (Wild applause from the audience.) Thank you, thank you, and thank you God for giving us Harvey Milk.

Ich hatte die Gelegenheit "Der Vorleser" noch vor der OScar-Verleihung zu sehen und kann mich der Academy nur anschließen, eine vielschichtige Performanz einer faszinierenden Figur. Der erste Award ging an Penelope Cruz die in Woody Allens "Vicky Christina Barcelona" überzeugen konnte, ich liebe diesen Film und obwohl ich kein Cruz Fan bin freut es mich um den Film. Sean Penn hat Mickey Rourke auf der Zielgeraden gerade noch einholen können, seine Darstellung als Harvey Milk war ja auch mehr als Oscar-würdig. hab mich gefreut.

Leider konnte Gus Van Sant den Regie Oscar nicht gewinnen, der ging an Danny Boyle für Slumdog Millionär - dieser Film gewann gleich 8 Oscars... tolles Ergebnis für die Inder-Crew.

Slumdog räumte ja bereits bei den Globes richtig ab aber 8 Oscars hatte ich nicht gedacht!!!

Benjamin Button hat in 10 Kategorien verloren, schlechte Quote.

Kate hat nun endlich ihren Oscar, ist das ihr Ende?

Ich glaube, dass Kate Winslet die nächste Meryl Streep ist, sie wird also weiterhin erfolgreich Filme machen.

Als ich mir ausgerechnet hab welcher Film in welcher Kategorie gewinnen wird kam ich für Benjamin Button auf 3 Oscars, ich hatte hier also eine gute Nase. Unsicher war ich trotzdem weil für 13 Nominierungen 3 Oscars nicht gerade viel sind.

Slumdog hat mich heute Nacht gelangweilt, ich hätte mich über mehr Preise für "Milk" oder "The Reader" gefreut.

Endlich hat sich der schwarze Ritter das geholt was ihm zusteht!

Slumdog hört sich für mich ziemlich langweilig an...
