I loved that Julie at least showed up. I'm not with ya on the Ruby thing, even if she was the best thing in her so so movie, Cate was simply wonderful beyond words. Enough with the career and make up Oscars, at some point the Academy should start rewading the best nominee.

I hear ya, but I thought Ruby was sensational in her small scene. I will be happy if anyone bu Amy Adams wins the Oscar. Seeing "I'm Not There" tomorrow so we will see if she is a the second coming after all.

Still want Saiorse to win it though
