The strike is over, the red carpet rolled out, dresses critiqued and torn apart.  I was excited, I was watching, I was…disappointed.

This years Academy Awards was a bit dishwater.  There was no flare, no excitement and frankly the films they had to choose from on a whole were quite boring.

Granted, I have not seen all of the films but I did see quite a few of them.  The winner of best picture, “No Country For Old Men” was a film I was greatly disappointed in.  The hype that surrounded it I felt let down. And now it won best picture.

I was happy “Juno” won best original screen play and the brilliant actress from “La Vi En Rose” won best actress, but other than that, I felt deflated more than elated.

Here’s to next year.
