So I just got my hands on the teaser trailer of the upcoming movie The Life Before Her Eyes. It comes out in April and stars Uma Thurman and Evan Rachel Wood. I just watched and it looks REALLY interesting. Check it
below. Seems like a mystery meets coming-of-age type thing. I’m intrigued!
- Intro with all the old movie characters: EXCELLENT
- Jon Stewart’s opening monologue: EXCELLENT
- The OSCAR goes to: Costume Design: Elizabeth: The Golden Age. Speech – short and sweet. Loved it.
- George Clooney is super gorgeous in his 80 year anniversary intro. And that was an incredible montage.
- The OSCAR goes to: Animated Feature: Ratatouille. Who’s surprised? Steve Carell’s one-liner to Jon Stewart WAS HILARIOUS. Love him.
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Makeup: La Vie en Rose. Katherine Hiegl was nervous - and she told us so. Cute? Fake? What?
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Visual Effects: Golden Compass. Wow - I definitely thought Transformers would win. (And don’t tell anyone but I secretly like The Rock. Shhhhh!)
- The OSCAR goes to: Art Direction: Sweeney Todd. Cate Blanchett looked amazing. Jon Stewart is so funny with tribute to Cate.
- Supporting Actor tribute: So fun. Love Cuba.
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Supporting Actor: Javier Bardem. Yay! He won! His spanish tribute is so cute! (I admit, didn’t understand it….)
- Is Jon Stewart awesome? Yes, yes he is. Binoculars and periscopes bit is actually funny.
- Um, that little girl can sing….
- The OSCAR goes to: Short Film (Live Action): The Mozart of Pickpockets. Owen Wilson sighting! Owen Wilson sighting!
-The OSCAR goes to: Short Film (Animated): Peter & the Wolf. Jerry Seinfelf as a Bee presents. He phoned that in….
-The OSCAR goes to: Best Supporting Actress: Tilda Swinton. She sure was lucky to work across from George Clooney. And did she mention BATMAN TO HIM? BATMAN??? Odd. But funny.
- Jessica Alba is gorgeous - even pregnant!
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Adapted Screenplay: No Country for Old Men, Joel and Ethan Coen. It’s kinda embarrassing that i haven’t seen this movie.
- Who is this guy? Get back to the stars! Get back to the awards!
- Oh, he’s explaining the process. And there are starts helping him. I’m the idiot.
- I love love love Kristen Chenoweth. She kicked butt singing the Enchanted song. My best good friend is certain that song will win the award. We’ll see….
- Angelina Jolie wins Baby!
- How funny are Seth Rogen and the guy from Superbad? They are very funny. I liked also how the guy from Superbad kept calling her Holly Berry. hahahah
- The OSCAR goes to: Sound Editing: Bourne Ultimatim.
- The OSCAR goes to: Sound Mixing: Bourne Ultimatim. Again, Seth Rogen and that other dude were funny.
- Am I allowed to find Forrest Whittaker annoying?
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Actress: Marion Cotillard. AND I LOVE HER. Her speech was absolutely amazing. I love her. “Thank you life, thank you love… this city does have angels….” Priceless. Love her.
- So apparently I need to see the movie Once. That song was amazing.
-And Jack Nicholson will always have that certain something….
- The Best Picture montage was really fun. It made me want to see Shakespeare in Love again…
-The OSCAR goes to: Film Editing: The Bourne Ultimatim. This movie is cleaning up! Where is Matt Damon?
- Standing ovation! Standing ovation! The first of the night! Goes to… Robert Boyle. Honorary Oscar recipient. He’s 98.
-Penelope Cruz is presenting Foreign Language Film. She’s just gorgeous. I dig her hair like that. Her intro was short and sweet. No jokes. I’ll take that.
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Foreign Language Film: The Counterfeiters.
- Is it weird that the announcer just called Patrick Dempsey handsome?
-Whoever was singing that last song from enchanted was cute, right?
-John Travolta is doing Best Song! Dance for us! Dance for us!
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Original Song: Falling Slowly, from the movie, Once. Another great speech! “Make art, make art!”
- Jon Stewart IS AWESOME.
-Spielberg shoutout. Word.
- The OSCAR goes to: Cinematography: There Will Be Blood. Need to see this movie!! Also, Cameron was cute. Liked that she pretty much admitted she can’t pronounce the word Cinematography. (and it’s 50/50 on whether I’ve spelled it right…)
- The montage they do each year is always moving. This year, particularly so with the recent passing of Heath Ledger.
- The OSCAR goes to: Original Score: Atonement. This score is hauntingly good. Amy Adams is so cute. My best good friend’s husband really likes her. I do too.
- Have I mentioned I love Jon Stewart?
- Tom Hanks! Tom Hanks! He helped introduce Best Documentary: Short Subject!
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Documentary: Short Subject: Freeheld. Moving speech. You gotta love the Oscars.
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Documentary: Feature: Taxi to the Dark Side.
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Original Screenplay: Juno, Diablo Cody. SHE WON! SHE WON! All readers of GlamBuzz (the 3 of you) know that I am obsessed with Juno. And she won!!! Yes yes yes yes yes yes!!!
- Montage of Best Actor - LOVE montages.
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Actor: Daniel Day Lewis, There Will Be Blood. This was no contest. He rules. That speech was nice - i like the shout out to fathers and sons.
- The OSCAR goes to: Best Director: Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, No Country for Old Men. The brothers are apparently talented.
- The 80th OSCAR for Best Picture goes to: NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN. So, yes, these brothers ARE talented.
Well, that’s it folks. Jon Stewart was awesome, Diablo Cody was awesome, and until next year……. Thank you life, thank you love.
Peace out!
Thoughts from the red carpet:
- Gary Busey is odd. The way he jumped in on Ryan Seacrest’s interview with Jennifer Garner and Laura Linney was so bizarre. Everyone was scared.
- Jennifer Garner looked amazing. Love her dress, love the hair.
- Anne Hathaway’s Marchesa dress was gorgeous and looked wonderful on the actress. Her boyfriend Raffaello Follieri was nice arm candy as well!
- Cameron Diaz was pretty in pink – her dress was Dior.
- George Clooney is very handsome and his girlfriend is cute too… very interesting that he brought her along… he’s not known to bring his girlfriends on the red carpet!
- HIGHLIGHT: Jason Bateman confirmed the rumors that they are trying to do an Arrested Development movie. YIPEE!
After the Golden Globes were handed out during a press conference, I just wasn’t prepared to experience the Oscarsr the same way. Thank god, we don’t have to worry about that anymore. Instead, we can (generously) pour ourselves some wine, get out the cheese and crackers, and park on the couch for this Sunday’s show. Even though the show doesn’t start until 5pm, (west coast only - you east-coasters need to tune in at 8pm) I think I’ll be camped out around 2 or 3pm so I can see each and every gown and tuxedo that walks down the red carpet. TV Guide’s red carpet coverage is hosted by Lisa Rinna and joey Fatone so I’ll definitely check that out.
I was happy to hear that some fun people were presenting at the awards, adding more fun gowns to watch for. In particular, I’m excited to see: Jessica Alba (in maternity wear!), Cate Blanchett, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Garner, Anne Hathaway, Katherine Heigl, Nicole Kidman, Hilary Swank, and Renee Zellweger. Lisa Rinna is also doing a Fashion Wrap up on Monday night at 7pm should anyone miss any of the night’s gowns.
To get in the mood, here is a link to our predictions of the big winners.
And if you’re in it to see the dresses, here is a slideshow of the most memorable gowns over the years.
Who doesn’t love Ms. Crow? She’s the poster child for girl power, for independence, for overcoming life obstacles, and for kickass great music. My two favorite songs by the female rccker are Strong Enough and Leaving Las Vegas. But after listening to her new album, I might change my mind. Detours, which has been out for a week, is more great Sheryl. Fun beats, great voice… It’s perfect for the car.
Have you heard it? What do you think?
Confession time: I have loved Ryan Reynolds since he starred on the Nickelodeon series Fifteen. When he starred on the show Two Guys, a Girl and Pizza Place, I watched relgiously. And when he made the leap to the big screen, I was one of his biggest supporters (I have seen Van Wilder no less than 10 times. It’s actually REALLY funny.)
Why am I telling you all this? Because he is in the movie Definitely Maybe that comes out this weekend and I cannot WAIT to see it. The trailer looks so good! And the cast is pretty interesting: Isla Fisher, Rachel Weisz, Elizabeth Banks (love her!), and the lovable Abigal Breslin.
Let me know if you see it this weekend… and whether or not you liked it!
Finally! After three months, the Writers Guild of America voted to end their strike. Writers will return to work today!
The main reasons I’m happy:
- The Office
- 30 Rock
- How I Met Your Mother
- Grey’s Anatomy
yes yes yes!
Mariah Carey debuted the first single off her upcoming album, E=MC2 this morning on New York radio station Z100.
It has a catchy beat and Carey’s legendary impressive pipes.
Fun trivia: she co-wrote and co-produced the song!
