Oscars 2010, The Longest Show On Earth: Highlights Edition
Did you make it all the way to the end of last night’s marathon Oscar broadcast? It wasn’t the longest one in history – that was 2002 — but boy did it ever feel like it. Between Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin’s Catskill-esque opener, a number of extra longs montages, an even longer dance number, and this new thing they are doing when five actors laud their five best actor counterparts…well you’d be forgiven for not making it to the end. It was a good end however, Kathryn Bigelow made Oscar history by becoming the first woman to win for Best Director, and Sandra Bullock’s speech was utterly charming and down to earth: “Did I really deserve this or did I just wear you down?” Just before the clock struck midnight Hurt Locker walked away with the top prize.
In case you missed any of it — the red carpet fashions, the tears, or even the dolphins — you can find all of Mediaite’s coverage and videos here….without the boring parts. And yes, the dude abides.
