Watching the Oscars right now in Pennsylvania. Another long day of drifting in and out of sleep, reading The Age of Innocence, and listening to music. Time for some Oscar predictions/opinions...

Jennifer Connelly's win: I expected it but I didn't want it to happen.. really, I didn't think her role was all that outstanding. Drama acting is so much easier than comedy, and if they were looking for emotion.. Marisa Tomei! I don't know.

Best Actor: I bet Russell will win, but I think Denzel deserves it. And don't give me crap about they should base their decision on this year's film and therefore Russell should win.. see Clark Gable's win, ok?

Best Picture: Gosh, it's a tossup. So I'll just say that I want A Beautiful Mind to win. Ooh, and for Best Foreign Film, y'all should know this: Amelie! I can't believe it isn't coming out on DVD until the summer here. Those lucky bastards in France...

Best Actress: I want Halle Berry to win and I really think she has a chance too.

I'll have to write about Marilyn Monroe later.
