Post-Oscars Wrap

I asked Martin Landau where he keeps his gold statuette and he said it's on a special shelf alongside his numerous other accolades like The Golden Globe, the SAG Award and those from the New York, Los Angeles and Chicago Film Critics, Mary Pickford Award and Cable Ace. "At night I know they all talk to each other," he joked.

It's the magic of Oscar no film fan can ever escape. I remember back in 1986 turning down the chance to appear in the Andrew McCarthy/Kim Cattrall film MANNEQUIN because I would have had to be on location in Philadelphia the very day I was scheduled to move to Hollywood! The entire 5 day cross-country trip in my little car, I kept worrying that I may have blown my one big chance to be in a movie and, who knows, WIN AN OSCAR! Ha ha ha, I still laugh about that now and, if you've ever seen that unfortunate "comedy" you would laugh at that, too! It wasn't too long before I got to act in two other box office disasters, OFF BEAT and ISHTAR. But even when the movie is a turkey, somewhere in the back of your mind, there is always a little twinkle of Oscar gold!

See? Even on Awards night, everybody still loves to gossip!

I'm happy to finally peel off the tuxedo and get back into some comfy clothes now. Still can't get over that Suri Cruise...what a living doll! Just think...in twenty years time, she and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt could be the new stars of the red carpet!

Ellen's sign off was super speedy, but it could have more to dow ith the fact that it was nearly a four (!) hour show. I think they should just campaign to make it an entire weekend event! She did a great job, don't you think? I, for one, believe she should get the gig again next year and let's have some Oscar consistency! Bob Hope and Billy Crystal were there for us...isn't it Ellen's turn!?

Well, kids, that does it for me tonight. Im going to jump into the Benz and head out into the night and see what post-party buzz I can dig up for tomorrow. If nothing else, we'll have fun rehashing the Memorable Moment and Best/Worst Dressed. Thanks for hanging out with me online.

Your pal in Hollywood...Nelson xxx

Kate Winselt, presenting for Achievement in Film Editing--THE DEPARTED! Isn't she lovely? Why, oh why, did she make THE HOLIDAY? I agree with Christian Bale that those fluffy romantic comedies (which I find rarely either romantic OR comedic!) are only executed by celebrities who have contracts to fulfill or alimony payments to be made. Okay, okay, I know a lot of you probably LIKED that movie, but COME ON! What a waste of Kate and Jude. They could have just as easily plucked a couple castaways off of LOST.

Whaddya think...MISS SUNSHINE, DEPARTED or an upset for BEST PICTURE????????????
