The costumes, the attention to detail, and some of the supporting performances (like Victor Garber, Rose's mom, and even Victor Newman) were SO GOOD. It's a shame about the horrendous dialogue, the focus on the love story (though I do think Kate and Leo were good), and Billy Zane and his eyeliner. I thought it was a…

He was and is so dreamy.

Haven't even started yet. But if I had a shot for every time I saw Angelina looking smug, I'd probably be dead by now.

She's better than this nonsense. Don't you plebes understand that?!

Because she's hot. Better her than Jack Nicholson.

Well, I must be crazy because I thought Nick Nolte looked sexy as fuck in his clip and I do not get the appeal of this Emma Stone lady at all.

Yeah, seriously. Non-American here watching to check out dresses and laugh at ego-maniacs who think the world revolves around them and their godawful movies.

I agree. I often like her dresses, but I never like how she looks in them. I don't like twee on grown women.

She looks so beautiful when she smiles. When she doesn't, I find that she often looks severe and smug. Such a difference.

You are definitely too interesting for Natalie Portman to pull off.

That's a good point. We get everything here, and also host the second biggest film festival in the world, so I guess I take for granted that I see so many great films.

Maybe that's the idea...

Meh. As a non-American, I can assure you most of us don't give a shit whether our films get attention in the US. American movies are widely disregarded as garbage.

Ugh. I just hate all these people. I turned it on to see the dresses and then kept watching because I truly do love film (I see about a hundred films a year at film festivals alone). But I just can't deal with the egos, the smugness, the bad jokes, the constant mutual fellating. And I feel like it gets worse and worse…

I LOVED it. Absolutely adored it. But I've heard A Separation is great too.

Exactly. Usually every single Best Foreign Film nominee is better than the film that wins Best Picture.

I had my nose done too, partially because I'd broken it years earlier and it wasn't re-set properly, but I suspect I'd have done it anyway. I don't even tell anyone, mostly because I forget I did it. It's no one's business and, unlike with breasts, there's no way anyone could ever know. Even my best friends didn't…

So, if I understand correctly, a woman is to have large (but not comically large), perky, real breasts. Which is pretty much impossible.

I'm sure you don't. Good luck finding your wife.

You could say the same about men's standards.
