It's too bad that the historical significance of Halle's win is lost on so many of you on this thread but I guess you don't like being reminded that race sometimes matters.</>

Race doesn't matter when the award is SUPPOSED to be given for talent....not the color of your skin.

Crap, crap, crap, crap!!! What a load of crap this is!!!! What the hell ever happened to judging by the content of character and not color of skin (I know, rhetorical questions). I am so sick and tired of seeing this racial whining come to fruition like this.

For Denzel, I don't mind as much, because I think the man should have won previously for his work; he is absolutely one of the best actors in Hollywood today. But not for this film.

And Halle Berry?!?!? Puhleeeaze! Showing one's ta-ta's should not merit an Oscar.

And worst of all - Spike Lee will probably still not shut up!

Oh let them have their say .. the fact is there have not been many other black actors to win the Oscars .. they are proud of there achivements being an actor and black .. there is nothing wrong with that
