[ABG(anybody but Gore)]

I'll grant you "Unforgiven", but "American Beauty" is not conservative. It's not just the awards themselves, but the speeches that come from these clowns that make the whole thing a farce.

[Borges]

AB was a rare exception. A bad movie at that. But Schindler's List Forrest Gump, Braveheart... And most of the speeches are apolitical as well. A small percentage gets all the publicity. The Oscar speeches were much more political in the 70s.
