Wall-E Wins Oscar
I could barely care less about the Oscars last night. In fact, I had forgotten that they were even on until some friends over reminded us.
So, we fired up the rabbit ears and checked out Hugh Jackman’s opening number, which was fun (especially the part about not seeing The Reader). Then the awards got under way and I realized that there was only one award that mattered to me: whether they would award a movie with almost no speaking as the animated film of the year. The woman and I had a brief debate about this category being the “animated film of the year” not the “kid’s film of the year”. Then, thankfully, the Academy awarded the Oscar to Wall-E.
I should remember that there are still some places where people are brave enough to get behind unconventional projects.
