No, it's the Oscars that don't allow for an actor to occupy more than one slot in a category. That's why the Weinstein company had "suggested" that WInslet be considered supporting for THE READER and leading for REVOLUTIONARY ROAD. The Golden Globes took the bait and nominated her that way and she won in both categories. The Academy voters saw it differently and nominated her work in THE READER as a leading role, and since she garnered more votes for it than for REVOLUTIONARY ROAD, that's the one she got nominated for.

I think it's funny that directors can earn multiple nominations in their category in a single year but not actors.

Thanks for the clarification, DR MattH. I guess part of my confusion was caused by the fact that I knew that a director could be nominated twice - or more - in their category.

Just out of curiosity, I was checking out the Broadway cast recording of Chess on Amazon.  It is no longer in print.  I already own two copies, but you can obtain new copies there for a mere $160.00.       :P

Then, I watched MY DINNER WITH ANDRE. Such a scintillating conversation and at 111 not the least bit dull even though it's just two men sitting in a restaurant talking. No one would take this kind of chance with a movie like this today. It must have been made for peanuts (shot on 16mm film), and I saw that it grossed $15 million. Pretty impressive for an "art" film.

I believe "My Dinner With Andre" is the first movie review I saw - or at least the first one I remember seeing - on Siskel & Ebert's "At the Movies".

*And that's yet more piece of randomness plucked from the recesses of my mind.

Revolutionary Road is my book group's August selection.  That's the month when we read the book, have a potluck dinner, and watch the movie together.

And will you be serving cocktails and Prozac afterwards?

Interesting.  Very interesting.  I wonder if Academy would give me that much for one of my copies?  ;)

I am filing my weekly unemployment claim online.  Everyone logs in at the same time, so it takes about 45 minutes to go through the three screens.

I am self-medicating with a red velvet cupcake from Crumbs.     :)

I'm glad I headed out earlier when a nice patch of blue appeared in the skies. It was nice to get outside for a bit and walk in the sunshine... And then make it back here in time before the last nap-inducing downpour started. ;)

No, from Stamford [which is on the way home from church  :) ].  They are also about to open a store in New Canaan.

DR ELMORE - RE: Bill Irwin & Andre deShields - I of course am speaking of their performances and stage/tv/film personas.....I don't know them personally.  However, since you find them both charming, it is my thought that I would be of the same mind.

DR Ginny - Does DH Richard keep some sort of archive of his sermons? Does the church archive sermons either in print, audio or video?

DR FJL that was a nice song link.  Thanks, Skip!

DR MBARNUM.....I am so sorry for your wasted time....but now you know that those recital years with that teacher were the exception, NOT the rule.

DR Jose - LOL!  I often look for clues in our books for what to serve at meetings - Dorothy Parker=martinis and bar snacks, Dorothy Sayers=sherry and biscuits.

Yes, DR Jane, he writes all his sermons on the computer, so they're archived digitally.  No audio or video - we're Anglican.

West Side Story in stereo - or was it processed?  Was it originally released in stereo?

I'm just wondering if during my wanderings in the East Village if I ever missed an opportunity to meet Pretty Boy.
