Bitter disappointing rant from Brokeback Mountain author Annie Proulx about the Oscars. How can you trash the Oscars and then be totally pissed when you lose? Sour grapes indeed.

I'm surprised Crash won the Best Picture Oscar last night, but Time's Richard Corliss thinks it makes sense, given that the movie was about LA. I really liked Crash when I saw it back in June, so I'm not disappointed.
Reading about someone watching the Oscars is just as interesting (if not more) as watching the Oscars. I'm sans TV tonight but have plenty of Internet...whaddya gonna do?
