Please tell me the light-on-the-loafers cow"boy" movie went home empty-handed...please, please!!
Nope. They won 3 Oscars. But so did King Kong... LOL!
Ang Lee got best director, and they got best screenplay from another source (whatever it is exactly) and best score, I think.
Memoirs of a Geisha got a lot of awards, but amazingly wasn't nominated in the best screenplay from another source (whatever, as I said) catagory. Yet it's source novel was probably the best known of all of them.

Recount!! Exit-polls said Brokeback would win by a butt-load!! Recount!! Call David Boises!!
Unfortunately BBM won the best musical score award. Since I did not see the movie, I can't evaluate the musical score. I can definitely say that the score for Pride and Prejudice by Dario Marianelli (it was a nominne in this category) is a wonderful piece of music. I purchased the CD of it shortly after seeing the movie. It is the first time I have ever purchased a CD of a soundtrack for a "non-musical" movie. It is so pretty that it almost makes you think you are listening to new Beethoven or Mozart music. I had to go out to Amazon to find it.
