Is Plummer really older than George Burns was when he was up?

He held the record for the oldest winner for 36 years for best supporting actor until Christopher Plummer won at the age of 82.

Bruce, did you see THE DRESSMAKER? A wonderful little film from a couple years ago.

Kimmel did just the right amount of politics in his opening....all in context....

I think it's all going to be predictable tonight in terms of winners. Sam Rockwell was just okay in Three Billboards - almost everyone else up was better than him, but you can't fight these things.

High praise, I think.

I did not see The Dressmaker, nor do I own a dress.

This is the first Oscarcast I think I have EVER missed since I began watching in the late 1950s.

Jeanne · « **Reply #248 on:** March 04, 2018, 05:25:09 PM »

You needn't own a single dress to admire this film. Not a chick flick. Not about pretty clothes. Something quite other.

I liked him but I did not see any of the other nominations to compare.

Useless unfunny comedy bit......number one

Five people here. No elmore, no Laura, no TCB, no George - shameful, but those who are here are cherce. I love spell check - it changes cherce to coerce. I personally would never coerce cherce.

Jane · « **Reply #252 on:** March 04, 2018, 05:25:45 PM »

OK, I am off for the night. See you tomorrow.

bk · « **Reply #253 on:** March 04, 2018, 05:25:51 PM »

What was the unfunny bit - and so it begins.

Jane · « **Reply #254 on:** March 04, 2018, 05:26:04 PM »

p.s. I will not be catching up on the posts.

They need to bring Bruce Vilanch back. And Jane is deserting the ship?

I’m waiting in line with several hundred people to get into Empty Bowls. The pottery guild donates the bowls and restaurants donate soups, all to raise money to help the homeless. Inflation has hit. The cost of the bowls has gone up $5 to $25 apiece. But they make good presents.

One of my favorite song intros: I give you - and don't forget to give them back when you're finished with them - the toast of Mayfair... Fraulein Empty Bowls

Check out the antenna the next time you're at Costco. I'm sure other places sell them, too. Home Depot, maybe.

I think Jimmy is doing well so far.

YES MR BK....come back to the antenna age.

Spell check should never have been released as is. It is simply too stupid, changing correct words to incorrect words that make no sense.

LOL....Eva says she's older than the Academy....LOL...she looks good....her dress is weird.

Standing ovation for Eva Marie Saint. She looks great at 90.

bk · « **Reply #268 on:** March 04, 2018, 05:30:26 PM »

Darkest Hour - I thought it deserved no awards - perhaps a nomination for Mr. Oldman but that's it - of course he's going to win.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #269 on:** March 04, 2018, 05:30:34 PM »

She must be going to do Costume Design....she's talking about Edith Head....
