Dustin Hoffman winning Best Actor for Kramer vs. Kramer (one of my favorite speeches; very humble): LINK edit: Nicholson's reaction to Crash winning is great.

that lady that presented the award could play the role of Susan, should the movie, "Susan Boyle, a British Idol" ever be made.

What's interesting is the presenter (Brenda Fricker) was the pigeon lady in Home Alone 2 (also with Joe Pesci).

just looked her up on IMDB:
quote:
As a teenager, a car accident left her out of commission for nearly two years; later she suffered from a case of tuberculosis and the removal of a kidney. Became pregnant six times during her marriage to Barry Davies; on all of those occasions she suffered miscarriages. Divorced Barry Davies in 1988 due to his alcoholism; they later reconciled in 1990 and remained together until his untimely death the following year.
Damn!

Crash was easily the worst of the five. I can't believe it won. I forgot Good Night and Good Luck was nominated. That was a great film.

Every time I see Roberto Benigni win, I tear up. I guess it's because of the harsh film material in contrast to the pure happiness that the guy shows. LINK
