Weekend Sweep
Diary of a Mad Black Woman stunned the box office gurus over the weekend by nabbing first place. Hitch held strong for another week in second. Constantine, Cursed, and Man of the House closed out the top five. Best Picture winner Million Dollar Baby came in sixth.
As for my Oscar picks I went 15 of 24 this year. That's 62.5%. However, when it came to the big awards--Best Picture, Director, Actor, Actress, Supporting Actor & Actress, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Cinematography I was 8 of 9. None too shabby if I do say so myself.
Million Dollar Baby was the big winner last night. Morgan Freeman won for actor in a supporting role, Hilary Swank for best actress, and Clint Eastwood as both producer and director. The Aviator took home its share of gold as well, winning in Cinematography, Costume Design, Art Direction, and Film Editing.
Sideways won for best adapted screenplay and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for best original screenplay.
Charlie Kaufman, who finally won an Oscar for screenwriting last night with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, is the subject of this Reuters article.
In my humble opinion, Chris Rock did an good job as the host for the 77th Annual Academy Awards and he really seemed to enjoy the gig.
