The Oscars

Actually, the dresses were the nice s urprise of the evening. So many beautiful gowns with that 1930's flair that I love so much. Gwynth Paltrow wore my favorite gown, although I'd order it in another color

. Rachel Weisz's Vera Wang, Penelope Cruz's Versace, J Lo, Helen Mirrin, Kate Blanchett, Kate Winslett and Caterine Deneuve's Gautier gown were all high on my list.

The evening started out exciting. Pan....winnning 3 in the beginning, A Danish Poet winning the animated short......I was thinking this was going to be fantastic. Ellen's Al Gore joke was beautful and she did great, IMHO!

However, I did think Pan was robbed and, as the "big" awards were announced, I became more and more disappointed. I was heartbroken that Peter O'Toole didn't win. I didn't really find The Departed to be the most memorable film of the year - at least of the one's I saw. It was classic Scorcesi, but not very "forward". I was just left feeling flat at the end of the awards.
Oh well. I'm glad I caught the red carpet preview.

THe men.....ummmmmmm there was some goodness tonight. Clive Owen, Daniel Craig, Robert Downey Jr, Hugh jackman - all nice eye candy.

Worst dress, hands down - Sally Kirkland. Why was she even there?
