mtlchick March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 Eva Marie Saint is 93. She doesn't look close to that. 7 Link to comment
Ohwell March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 13 minutes ago, Sugar said: Ugh. I actually hope that speeches don't get political, because I don't watch for this shit. A few meaningful words that are relevant to the winner are fine (like when screenwriters talk about the importance of writing, or a first female winner talking about breaking ground in her category), but otherwise I am sick to death of all the politicking in Hollywood. We get it. Metoo, Weinstein, equal pay, POC, blah blah. I just want to watch pretty people win stuff. Amen! 2 Link to comment
Calvada March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 I love Eva Marie Saint - her interview(s) with Robert Osborne are pure gold. This is what the Oscars should be: Hollywood royalty telling stories. 9 Link to comment

jjj March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 Okay, just let Eva Marie Saint talk for a few minutes. And then a few minutes more. Better than any song and dance display. 6 Link to comment
thuganomics85 March 5, 2018 Author Share March 5, 2018 (edited) Damn, the same person did both Beauty & the Beast and Darkest Hour? Must have been a busy year! But, of course Phantom Thread wins it. Would have probably been embarrassing if it didn't. ETA: Mark Bridges might be getting that jetski! Edited March 5, 2018 by thuganomics85 2 Link to comment

scarynikki12 March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 Wasn’t Eva Marie the one who was nine months pregnant when she won and said “I may have the baby right here”? I’ve always liked her. 2 Link to comment
truthaboutluv March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 2 minutes ago, DearEvette said: She almost went down. I wonder if the floor was slippery and her shoes were too new. I really think it's time for her to start requesting some fancy flats from designers for these Award show. Love her but girlfriend clearly cannot walk in high heels. And with the long dresses, no one will see the shoes anyway so wearing flats won't be a big deal. I'm happy for Sam Rockwell but I really wish he didn't feel the need to yell his speeches. Dude, you're in front of a mike, we can hear you just fine. 2 Link to comment

She's allowed herself to age naturally but still looks amazing. Mentioning her husband made me want to cry. I just logged on, so forgive my redundancy. I love the old Hollywood look of the stage and all of the movie clips. Classy. Edited March 5, 2018 by topanga 8 Link to comment
wallflower75 March 5, 2018 Share March 5, 2018 Right at the end, I noticed the guy who just won for costume design was holding the envelope so you could see his name as the winner...deliberate or no? Link to comment
