The first to get a Post Mortem Oscar after drugging himself into oblivion in an anorectic druggie actress’s apartment.
Judy Garland’s rendition of “The Man That Got Away” has got to be one of the greatest vocal performances ever recorded. I can’t even think of a superlative to do it justice, except perhaps “perfection.”
You don't say?
In fact, what seems to about to replace Hollywood is Bollywood, that is now producing wholesome, if often silly entertainment, with intelligent, educated, articulate actors and directors, who along with that industry will grow. Hollywood is in the sewer!
Dorothy’s friend, ain’t ya?!
I can't take Sean Penn seriously after this photo op in New Orleans bailing his own rescue boat out
Man On Wire! Good.
It’s not over yet.
Unless you are a Frenchie surrender freak.
The best Oscar show I’ve seen since the early days of Billy Crystal.
Jackman is doing a fantastic job and so far there has been little or no politiking!
I am truly enjoying this.
This was his shining moment!
What is it that makes someone so stupid as to come out and ridicule the beliefs of others?
lol. The first time I saw that picture I thought Spicoli
they were all legal drugs blame the pharmacist
It’s funny that PB cuts off the great period so early into his own career. I would end the great period in the early 1980s. It could be great again if people around here and many others would take cinema seriously like they used to in the 1950s.
Let’s not forget that a lot of hatred of Hollywood is envy as well.
He had a dress rehearsal for that ending when he was in “Candy”.
I think you’re being generous calling her an actress. She LOOKS like a heroin addict.
What do you think about a Hollywood competitor?
In Branson Missouri, for example.
It only took Fox News 10 years to knock out every other channel, in viewership, influence and momentum.
The market (contrary to what your current batch of nitwits in Washington thinks) works.
What’s needed is real competition. An alternative, which will simply put Hollywood out of business.
By doing the job, better.
Sheesh. You people who worship Godless, America-bashing, freedom-destroying, homosexual-promoting, global-warming-believing sacks of left-wing crap sure are touchy.
The same people that love Saving Private Ryan Hate Hollywood.
