Yes!

A truly deserved win! And, not to brag, but I said that "The Hurt Locker" was a great film back in July. Y'know, during the summer, when I urged you to go out and see it. TOLDJA!

Okay, I'm done now. I promise I won't talk about "The Hurt Locker" again for a long time. Promise!

Congrats Kathryn!


As for the rest of last night's Academy Awards, it was mostly hit and miss. Hosts Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin made a valiant attempt to bring some humor to the night's proceedings, but were unfortunately marred by sluggish pacing and unfunny jokes.

But, in the end, it's about the movies. And while the ceremony as a whole was so-so, seeing Kathryn and her team win for such a great movie was both exciting and moving.

A true triumph for art. I'll leave it at that.
