Oscars '11 @ A Glance

The Oscars are over for another year... I thought the telecast was pretty good Hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway didn't do too badly--all things considered Franco did seem a bit more uneasy than  did Hathaway And the banter seemed a bit forced at times. I thought Anne's song about Hugh Jackass was amusing.


I thought the film spoofs worked pretty well...Franco in ballet mode...
