And the award for best use of text messaging in a film goes to...

The DEPARTED, of course.
I didn't watch the Oscars, so what I'm saying is totally unsubstantiated and biased. Pretty much like it always is. But here are my humble thoughts on the night that all of Lakewood lives for:

The Hair
First of all, it seems that long, straight hair is back. Yeah. After four years of Terry Hatcher inspired, very difficult to execute spirals, it appears that straighter heads prevailed, ie, Nicole Kidman, Gwyneth, and Reese. (On another note, it seems that Philip Seymour Hoffman and Nicole Kidman are both on tract to be completely bald by 2020). There were some exceptions, such as Naomi's gorgeous curls. Is their a way I can get a hair transplant from her? I would die a happy woman.

The gowns were typical. Cate looked fab, but her dress had a Halloween vibe. Rachel Weisz brought it. Gwyneth wore a bra and found how out how wonderful it looked. Helen Mirren is babe, and looked both age appropriate and young (seriously, amazing), while Jodie Foster is looking like the old dike people say she is. JLO and Niaomi Watts both looked pregnant. And Penelope Cruz wore a gown that looked like it was designed by Sir Mixalot ( I like big...). Jessica Biel needs to wear a bra.

The men looked pretty fabulous, but whats up with the greased back hair; I love it on Michael Corleone, but Toby Maguire, don't even think about it. I get it with Leo (he likes to see his own reflection in his hair), but come on George. Your better than that. There were lots of great baldies this year (Forrest and Will to name a few). Jackie wasn't one of them. He looked like a deranged Mr. Clean. Tom Cruise looked good and sufficiently not crazy. Lastly, Markie Mark rocked my world. (What's new).
About the movies
Scorsese won an Oscar the same year Peyton won a Super Bowl. Where's Karl Malone? I'm stoked about the Departed. I still need to see most of those movies.
Finally, who told her she could come.
