All joking aside, I don't see the need for the "but" conjunction here.
This author seriously thinks that being known for being a gay themed movie makes it anathema to winning once-amazing awards?
Who cares about these awards anyway. I am just reading this because I am stuck at work and don't have anything else new to read.
Have you noticed how movie stars always get hooked up with other movie stars. Very rarely do you ever see one of them with say a doctor, engineer, scientist or college professor. Typically they are running off with the baby sitter or someone like that. They are idiots just look kind of good.
