I like Helen Mirren

Wrong Queen. . .

The memoriam montage is always so varied in quality. I bet it will be good this year...

A lot of remarkable people have died this past year

Here's an in-between shirts gratuitous post.

I'm ironing the weekend's wash now.

"I'll Be Seeing You" is one of my favorite songs of all time -- top three, at least.

I wish they'd stop moving the camera around, it's making me dizzy

It's up there with "Moon River" in my favorites, too.

I dont have cable and have to rely on antennas. I get rather good reception despite the building not having an antenna

Why are they so far away from the screen on so many people? Shame on them. You couldn't even see it was Cyd Charisse. And this crowd doesn't even know who half these people are. Where was the applause for Robert Mulligan, Kon Ichikawa, David Watkin.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #1390 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:18:59 PM »

If you are getting dizzy, think of the camera operator

Manny Farber is big, Ricardo Montalban you can't see. Jules Dassin is Topkapi, not Never On Sunday or, heaven forbid, any of his classic noirs for Fox.

Well... They had to show off Queen Latifah's dress. $:-\$

The camera work on this is awful. You can't see half the names.

Matt H. · « **Reply #1394 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:20:32 PM »

The camera was WAY too busy during that tribute. I found that very distracting.

Ann · « **Reply #1395 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:20:38 PM »

Was Heath Ledger in that montage? Did I miss it?

Jrand74 · « **Reply #1396 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:20:42 PM »

Very nice. Ten out of ten.

Edisaurus · « **Reply #1397 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:20:47 PM »

Nice---although it was hard to read the ones that were far off camera.

bk · « **Reply #1398 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:20:55 PM »

That was just not good. All names should have been readable and easy to see.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #1399 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:21:02 PM »

Umm.... Heath Ledger? Eartha Kitt?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #1400 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:21:03 PM »

Didn't he die at the end of 2007?

MBarnum · « **Reply #1401 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:21:05 PM »

I love Queen Latifa.

It was January 22, 2008, but it was before the last Oscar show. They showed him last year.

Four more awards in fifteen minutes. It FEELS like I've been watching for four hours, though.

Matt H. · « **Reply #1404 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:22:08 PM »

Heath was in last year's montage.

There's a NEW Mac Book pro???

Jrand74 · « **Reply #1406 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:22:32 PM »

Didn't see Heath....passed away in January 2008....maybe he was in last year's montage.

Umm... No. 43 minutes.

What does this new Mac Book do that others don't - other than the eight-hour battery, which is, of course, appealing.

Ann · « **Reply #1409 on:** February 22, 2009, 08:23:00 PM »

Oh yeah, I forgot. My mistake.
