truthaboutluv February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 (edited) Man this sucks. Couldn't we have had a tie? I love Olivia and I am thrilled for her but I'm so bummed for Glenn Close. And this is why I was nervous about Rami because I just had a gut feeling, there was going to be an upset in the lead categories, either with Actress or Actor.

mojoween February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Hey Sam Rockwell back off, escorting the ladies is Chris Evans’s job. Aww Frances I want to know what you wanted to say. The bow is a nope but the rest of Olivia’s dress is beautiful. LOVE the green. 1 7 Link to comment
Zanne February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 I am so happy Olivia Colman won! I kind of love her and want to be her when I grow up. 11 Link to comment
GreekGeek February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Olivia!!! I'm happy she won, even though her role was more of a supporting character than lead. I feel bad for Glenn Close still being Oscar-less. 3 Link to comment
Browncoat February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Damn! No knocks on Olivia, but I really wanted Glenn to win. She was great in The Wife. 5 Link to comment

Ms Lark February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 I love Olivia Coleman, but I was really hoping for Glenn. Well, maybe a lifetime achievement award? 3 Link to comment
Lonesome Rhodes February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 1 minute ago, Silver Raven said: Has anybody seen The Wife? Yes. The protagonists are horrid people. Glenn Close was very good in it and merited a nomination. The movie is a small film about small and deceitful characters. The professional ceilings women faced back in the day, however, were ubiquitous and awful. It's not the focus of the movie, though. 5 Link to comment

Calvada February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Glenn Close and Amy Adams can get together at the after party and toss down some shots. 1 20 Link to comment
mtlchick February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Olivia saying to Glenn that she is her idol and really didn’t want it to end up like this had me chuckling. She’s going to get loaded at the after party and I wish I could be there for it. 13 Link to comment
thuganomics85 February 25, 2019 Author Share February 25, 2019 Now that I've calm down a bit: I do feel bad for Glenn Close, and I certainly hope she gets what of these damn things, eventually. 7 Link to comment
27bored February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 I don’t know who Olivia Coleman but she’s charming the pants off this show. That was one of the best acceptance speeches I’ve seen in awhile. I love that she called it hilarious. 15 Link to comment

I know a lot said she shouldn't be in a lead catagory and she didn't do much, but there's something to be said for the restraint or the moments of understated portrayal that an actor can show with their character as well. She's wonderful. 7 Link to comment
MVFrostsMyPie February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Olivia's speech was so amusing to me that I might actually bother watching The Favourite. 3 8 Link to comment

So mad that The Favourite lost. If it had lost to First Reformed or possibly Roma, that may have softened the blow, but Green Book...?! 2 Link to comment

slowpoked February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Awww Glenn...go get a shot or two of Patron with Amy Adams later during the afterparties. Because, well, what else can you do?! 4 Link to comment

sally-can-wait February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 This Oscars has been the perfect mix of shoo-ins and shocks. The no host format has really worked so far as well. I've really enjoyed it! 11 Link to comment

I actually saw it today and thought it was pretty good. It's all subjective. Glenn Close was very good in it. Before I saw it I was picking Colman because she was just amazing. I would have had no problem with Close winning, was actually pulling for her..but hell, it could have been a tie! Loved Colman's speech and her nod to Glenn. Ha I think she felt bad she took the Oscar from GC. 5 Link to comment

Jodie Foster gave a great performance in The Accused that year, but...damn, Glenn was good in that movie. 3 Link to comment
vb68 February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 I feel so bad for Glenn Close. It's got to sting. She seemed like such a shoo-in. And no, there is no guarantee that she will ever win. 8 Link to comment
