The Oscars - Best Picture

[Gemini Cricket]

Did anyone catch the acceptance speech for the 'Crash' Best Pic win? A female producer stepped up to the mike at the very end and thanked her husband and her wife. No joke. I want the 411 on that...

She was rushing to finish as the "get the hell off the stage" music began and said "wife" instead of "daughter".

Ha ha. So much for the lesbian polygamy rumors.

Thank you. Don Cheadle, our partner, we wish he could be here with us tonight. Thank you everybody. Thank you to my husband, to my wife, to all of our families.

They usually don't cut off the final speech with music unless it's really, really long. I remember the speech for 'Schindler's List' to be mega-long.

Love Ang Lee's quote here:

Their names are Ennis and Jack. And they taught all of us who made "Brokeback Mountain" so much about not just all the gay men and women whose love is denied by society, but just as important, the greatness of love itself. Thank you.
