Ruby Dee was the prettiest lady I saw all night.

Deb,
Last night, the number of first time Oscar winners was staggering, and it showed in their disjointed and rambling, sometimes indecipherable, acceptance speeches. Fashion-wise, it seemed like most of the stars played it safe and the overall effect was ho-hum. Except for the winner of best supporting actress - clearly, she did not expect to win, as evidenced by the fact that she forgot to do her make-up or to finish the left sleeve of her gown. That is, if you can call the black velour night-shirt she wore a “gown.” OMG - it reminded me of a black garbage bag you might pull over your clothes in desperation, when an unexpected downpour occurs while you’re camping! BTW - who do you like to win Project Runway’s 4th season? I’m ever so fond of Chris, but I think Christian will be the winner.
