Post-Oscar night recap:
- Predictable and quite uneventful
- The pretty great cinema of last year deserved a better show
- Why was Franco there again?
- A few less dress changes for Hathaway might have actually made the Oscar duo host give us at least one live duo hosting performance. There was no reason to have two hosts, Franco could have easily just made the appearance in the introductory movie scene compilation and there would be no difference.
- I learned something new: all the personal stories behind the production of the King's Speech. Makes you believe again that a labor of love cannot go unnoticed or unrecognized.
