On the subject of people who have a history of being overlooked congrats to randy Newman, 17th time lucky!  Personally I thought Enya should have won the best sone but I can't complain about it going to him.

  I was pleased Ron Howard got best director.
  He's had a couple of films win best picture
  before but never won anything personally and
  honestly how *can* the film be good if not
  for the director???
  >>

  Not me. I haven't seen A Beautiful Mind, but
  I'm positive David Lynch deserved that statue.
  Then again, David Lynch has an illustrious
  history of being ignored by the Oscars; Wild
  At Heart was only nominated for (and didn't
  win) Best Supporting Actress, even though it
  won the Palm D'Or at Cannes. Blue Velvet was
  nominated for (and didn't win) Best Director
  only. Mulholland Drive deserved to be at the
  very least nominated in more than two categories!
