Also glad to hear that Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind won Best Original Screenplay, it was one of my favourite movies of last year.
More Oscar info from the BBC.

P.S. I’ve discovered another one of those ‘typing things’, you know, words that you always type incorrectly depending on the order you are typing them in the latest being “Million Dollary Baby”. Doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, does it.

P.P.S. No spotted the obvious mistake the. It’s Jamie Foxx, not Ray Foxx as I had previously. I must stop posting before I’ve had my morning coffee. I knew my Mum would spot it though…
