Gay Oscars

Well, the nominations are out and what an upset!!! Brokeback Mountain leads with 8 nominations. This movie has received alot of buzz because it is a movie about 2 cowboys who are gay and must keep their life a secret. YAWN! and YUCK! I don't judge people for the type of life they choose, but I don't want to celebrate it either. Now the actors can recieve their awards, I'm sure they did a good job, but for the movie to win Best Picture? I have a strong feeling it will. So many democrats and liberals are so freaked out about the Alito ordeal, the war in Iraq, President Bush in general, that by having a gay themed movie win Best Picture will give them a reason to yell "HA!" in our general direction.
So it comes down to this. Oscar night, March 5th. I will be watching the Academy Awards. I will be guessing the winners like I always do. I will be rooting for Walk the Line for all its categories, and who knows what box I'll check in the Best Pic category. Walk the Line was not nominated. Another very big upset. The biggest award I will be watching for is Best Actress in a Leading Role. I am hoping with all my heart it is Reese Witherspoon. I have watched her career very closely for one reason. We auditioned for the same part in the movie Man in the Moon. Obviously she got it, and I didn't. They made the right choice. Now she is up for an Oscar. THAT COULD'VE BEEN ME!!! Ok, probably not, but I can dream right?
