IF you want to build a ship, don't herd people together to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

Scorcese and The Departed WIN

February 26, 2007

 

YES!! Scorcese finally had his day, with the added bonus of The Departed winning as Best Film in this year's Oscar ceremony. Monahan also won for best adapted screenplay for this mob drama. only marky-mark didn't (not entirely unexpected)… still i'm glad. the other award was for editing (for thelma s.), to which i wholeheartedly agree.

This makes my day.

as expected, whitaker (The Last King), mirren (The Queen) and hudson (Dreamgirls) won as best actor, actress and supporting actress, respectively. alan arkin (Little Miss Sunshine) won an upset over eddie murphy (which also makes me glad heheh).

I’m so happy for Martin Scorsese! My friends and I were all cheering for him. There were only few surprises but we were still hoping for Leo or Peter to win for best actor… :-)
How did you find Ellen?

i was coming back from a lunch break when i learned about it. i almost danced a jig. the best film nod was a great bonus (i’d been hoping for it since last year).

ellen d. played it ’safe’ — she stayed away from controversial topics and her jokes wheren’t too risque. i guess she did okay

I never thought Marty would ever win an Oscar! -_- I thought he’d be another Peter O’ Toole. Finally though! Maybe the Oscars would start rolling in this time around for him.

FUNNIEST Academy Awards I’ve ever watched. Ellen de Generes is a gem!

Can I link you, btw? :)
