Other academy awards

Just wanted to ask how people felt about the other awards.  Was there 
anyone who you thought got shafted?  Anyone you thought didn't 
deserve the honor?  And what about the clothes, hair, etc.?  Dish!

I really liked the guy who won the humanitarian award - his attitude 
was awesome, and it was so nice the way he talked about his parents.

I was bummed that Amelie didn't win at least something - it deserved 
to be in the running for best picture (imo, of course), and yet 
somehow didn't even win best foreign film.  Bah!  

And there was a bit of secret glee on my part that Russel Crowe 
didn't win.  I mean, I was really happy for Denzel - he's done such 
great work over the years that even though I didn't see Training Day, 
I'm sure he deserved it (althought I was torn between him and Sean 
Penn), but some little part of me was happy specifically because 
Crowe didn't win.  I'm so wrong.  

I was happy to see Jennifer Lopez finally figured out which bits 
clothes are generally meant to cover (not to Jen - it's the bits most 
sensitive to cold - that's why we wear clothes!), but I couldn't 
figure out what was up with her hair.  Julia Robert's dress took me a 
minute to figure out, but once I did, I liked it a lot.  And Halle 
Berry is always beautiful, but that dress was gorgeous.  Gwynneth 
Paltrow on the other hand... I'm worried about her.  Clearly she has 
no friends.  Even a casual friend would surely have talked her out of 
that dress, or at least reminded her that support *can* be beautiful.

Wow - I feel all catty now.  It's actually kinda fun!  C'mon, you 
know you want to do it too!  How about Julia's many (many) huggins of 
Denzel?  Anyone care to comment?
