Sigh. As Alex will tell you, I have never been very Oscar friendly. American Beauty and Sixth Sense I will agree on - both were outstanding. Green Mile? Let's just say I checked my watch several times. A great cast does not always make a great movie and Tom Hanks will never be anyone but Forrest Gump in my mind. And no, that is NOT a complement. Haley Osment for best supporting actor - Crock O Shit. He deserved a best actor nomination and everyone knows it. His role was significant and deserving of best actor in every sense of the award. A lessor actor would have turned the film to shit - imagine Jake Lloyd trying to precociously ham his way through that. Of course, I'm sad to see Princess Mononke get nothing. It was ignored in 1997 after it swept through Japan and ignored during its all too brief run in the US this year - except by critics wo loved it. The soundtrack is one of the best film scores I have ever heard. Enough ranting from me. Keep the taps flowing and be well. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +-------------------- new york, london, paris, tokyo ----------------+ +------------------ everybody talk about... popjourno! -------------+ +----------------------- http://www.popjourno.com -------------------+ +--------- to send a message to the list, please address it to ------+ +----------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------+ +--------- declarations of love, presents, and otherwise saucy ------+ +-------- e-correspondence should be sent directly to the list ------+ +------------------- mummy at [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------+ +------------- popjourno currently has over 140 subscribers ---------+ +------------------------ (most of them lurkers). -------------------+ ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
