Awards 'n stuff



Top of a hungover Monday to you and a hearty congratulations to all the winners from the blog awards, with a smoochy Mickey Rourke styled kiss to Sweary in particular. Much deserved.
In non blogging related whimsy, Meryl Streep was robbed.

    You're alive!

    I was worried there for a minute.

  4. Alive might be too strong a word. I'm pretty sure death's just ignoring me to torment me.

    Yeah - she gives me the creeps. Not too sure why, but I just feel unsettled when I see her...

  6. Oh I can understand that, I feel the same way about Judi Dench.

  7. I honestly thought Mickey Rourke would win best actor - however I haven't seen MILK, so I'm thinking it is a great performance by Sean Penn.

  8. See, I had this conversation as I poured vast qauntities of alcohol down my gullet last night. I watched The Wrestler, and thought it was a so so movie, but was Mickey even acting? Dunno. He was so unlikeable in the film too which might have soured my view.
    I am left puzzled by my meh-ness of his performance. I thought he did a better job in Sin City.

    Glen Close is to me as Meryl Streep is to sheepworrier and Judi Dench is to you.

    I like and admire her but she slightly unnerves me. Don't know why.

  10. Have you been watching Damages Sam? She's a perfect villain.

    I think it might be something to do with meryl streep looking like she has her skin stretched over her face like yer fella from Deep Space Nine...

  12. I always feel guilty for not adoring Judi Dench.
    But Sam: Glenn Close is great on TV in Damages and God knows its a fallow field.

  13. Ooooh hurray FMC - you think the same:)

  14. Judi's got that whole national tresure thing going on for herself, but I had a very distrubing dream about her with much nakedness, and since then I just can't look at her in the same light.

    I really like Judi Dench. She has such a distinctive face and voice, yet she disappears into her characters. As familiar as she is, you forget you're watching Judi Dench and believe her character. I don't know how she does that.

    And yes, Frank Langella was brilliant in Frost/Nixon, an otherwise shockingly dull and unimaginative film.

    ReplyDelete
  18. She can do sinister very well, like in Notes on a Scandal.
    I used to like A fine Romance, the show she used to do with her husband I think it was. I imagine that quaint gentle humour is very difficult to pull off in reality, but she managed it beautifully.
    Then the dream came along and everything got the little bit more ick.

  19. He was brilliant wasn't he? He actually made me feel sympathy for Nixon. Very odd how he managed to do that.

    That's the weird thing about Richard Nixon, FMC. He was a pathetic, paranoid, ugly little man and you almost felt some sympathy for him at the end of his life. But was he a total bastard too? You bet! (sorry, was that too loud? I'll try to be more quiet....)

    ReplyDelete
  21. Aye, that's exactly it. I know he was a toad, but Frank played him with real charm. I wonder will there ever be a film made about Bertie Ahern, and who might play him if there was.

    ReplyDelete
  22. yes, yes she was.......I have very little else to offer.....
