The 80th Annual Academy Awards, Pt. 3

The best speech of the night almost didn't happen. I'm not sure if it was Jon Stewart's idea or the producers of the show, but I thought it was a wonderful idea to have Marketa Irglova come back after the commercial break to give her interrupted speech. She talked about the spirit of the independent artists and songwriters. I must see Once. I read about it a few months ago in a blurb in the NY Times, but I haven't really been actively seeing movies in the past few months. The gals and I did see There Will Be Blood last night. Daniel Day-Lewis definitely deserved the Oscar for his performance.
