Ahhh.... what exhilarating results! Ok, the Academy Awards may not be the most credible of all movie awards, but hey, it is still the biggest, most important movie award for 78 years now and it's hard for me not to get excited over the nominations and the results.

Ang Lee won best director for Brokeback Mountain! Yay! A glorious moment for Asians all over the world, even more so for the Chinese! Brokeback Mountain also won for best adapted screenplay and best original score. Frankly, I do think that the soundtrack for Brokeback Mountain is beautiful but I would not expect it to actually win any awards. However, it definitely deserved it's best adapted screenplay award.

But hot favourite Brokeback lost out to Crash in the best motion picture category. Disappointing but I'm not complaining. Crash is another movie which I hope that everyone watches. It's depiction of racial tension was so subtle yet so real, and the way the stories of individuals interlinked made you realize that you did not feel for the plot per se, but simply for the lives of each individual. It opens audiences up to a whole new perspective by urging you to look beyond your own pain, and to recognize that each seemingly unrelated individual who passes you by are all but mere mortals. In this case, character in the movie suffer from racial stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination, yet all handle in different ways that thou small, actually have a great impact on the lives of others around them. Great movie, original yet so meaningful. Absolutely worthy of it's win in the best original screenplay category.

Best actor and best actress? No comments cos I never watched those movies they starred in. Best supporting actor? Never had much impression of George Clooney. Best supporting actress? Ahhhh.... Rachel Weisz. I'm very very happy that she won. Best animated feature film? I guessed it would be Wallace and Gromit actually, so no surprises.
