Oscar Appearances & more...

well....I imagine that all of you out there that you love the movies, you have already learned  the winners of last nights Academy Awards.....I think that the 2011 Oscars were given without any surprise everybody knew in advance the winners and unfortunately there was not something for discussion the days after....

Except the dresses....to tell you the truth it was my surprise  that most of the last night' s appearances were just ok...there was not someone dressed in such a way to amaze me, although there were some ladies that somehow managed to make a negative impression.....

for example Nicole Kidman and Gwyneth Paltrow... the first one wore a Christian Dior dress but to tell you the truth it looks like an origami project (and probably a bad one) and the second one with the Calvin Klein dress could definitely understudy the disco ball of Studio 54.... sorry ladies but I think that your last night dress choices were just out...... 

Now look at this gown that Marisa Tomei wore....Really??? Tim Gunn would have suffered several strokes if someone of his Project Runway kids would show something like this.... this dress makes her look like she just had 3 bottles of beer and 2 whole pizzas......  

Ok for this orange hurricane that Jennifer Hudson wears there are not enough words....even though she has lost weight and she is really lovely and beutiful this gown is like an ad for orange juice.......

Now for this appearance I am a little confused....

maybe because I love Cate Blanchett and I really don't like to say something bad...but this dress...it is like an armor...and the yellow lace on the shoulders.... not her best moment........

ok Mrs Sharon Stone has made the right choice for the dress but not the right choice for her styling....I love the dress but her hair is like Frankenstein's bride....otherwise she would be one of the best.... 

there are not much to say with the Oscar winner Natalie Portman...she is just lovely!!!!

and also she is the proof that everywoman, no matter how her body is, can be georgeous if she is dressed properly and if she is well styled!!!!!!

Another good example of good styling: the young and sweet Hailee Steinfeld is well- dressed according to her age without trying to be a woman who goes to Oscars....she is a young fresh girl and that's it!!!! 

Simply chic!!!! Again appropriate for her age Miss Jennifer Lawrence is completely different from her role in the Winter' s Bones and also really astonishing!!!!

The right classic black dress can make a woman look like a star!!!!although Maria Menounos was not one of the stars of last night she shaded most of them with her glow and her greek elegance!!!! 

For me, maybe the most beautiful female appearance in the Oscars

Last but not least, and definetely out of every comment because she is a category on her own is the fabulus Helena Bonham Carter!!!!

Last night she wore a dress made from the "Alice in Wonderland" costume designer Colleen Atwood!!!! She is the woman who does not need a special dress to stand out but the one who makes a dress unique and one of a kind!!!! Respect!!!!!

So that was it for this year!!!!!!

next year again.......I hope for better appearances and certainly for even better movies!!!!!

many kisses

Oscar predictions & whisfull thinking

Hello people from a place so far away from where the Oscars will be given today.....
we are alsmost 3 hours away from the moment the Oscar ceremony begins, and I am really anxious to see who & what will receive the much desired award.....
. So if it was up to me the Oscar for best actor would be given without any doubt to Colin Firth
Even though I really liked very much the other three performances from Jeff Bridges, James Franco & Jesse Eisenberg ( I didn't see Biutiful) the way Colin Firth acted is moving without beeing melodramatic, unforgettable and definetely worth awarded.
In the best actress category the truth is that I do not have someone distinguish and to worth my Oscar vote...it's one of the few times that I feel like this. I haven't seen Michelle Williams' Blue Valentine but really I don not think that I will be amazed....so if someone has to get it I would give it to Jennifer Lawrence just because at this young age managed to act in such a depressing movie....
Again in the supporting actor category I have big problem to choose....EVERYBODY was very good!!!
I would choose Geoffrey Rush because he was also amazing in The King's Speech but he has also an Oscar so maybe I would give it to Christian Bale, but I would like also to award Mark Ruffalo because he was so different from the roles we have seen him to act so far
One more time I wish that there were more Oscars to give in the supporting actress category....as there is only one award I would give it to Helena Bonham Carter and Iwant to note that Hailee Steinfeld should have been nominated in the best actress category(where Idefinetely would give her the award)

In the director category I would like for David Fincher to win for The Social Network His directing gave the movie rythm and made it easy for the audience to understand the facts without being tiring
For adapting screenplay again I would choose The Social Network with a second choice of the 127 Hours
The original screenplay Oscar definetely I would give it to Inception (and really I did not get the reason why this movie was nominated for so few Oscars), my second choice here would be The Fighter
Finally the best movie Academy Award I hope to go either to The King's Speech or to Inception  or The Social Network

Last BUT DEFINETELY not least....I hope/wish/want/pray as I have mentioned in a previous post for Dogtooth to bring an Oscar for the Best Foreign Language Film
In a few hours some people will go very happy back to their homes and some people will go less happy, as I think that just an Oscar nomination, is not only great recognition for what you do but great honor too.
Till tomorrow

Many kisses

&

Oscar wishes
