I do believe I'll be watching the Oscars after all--and not only because the Writer's Strike seems to be over.
(AND not only because DD-L is brilliant in There Will Be Blood...he is. But because. You know why.)

Mikaela:
Yes, the BAFTAS were last night and they, like the SAGs before them and the Oscars to come, pay tribute to those who have passed away. Unlike the SAGs they've had time to do it properly, too... *sigh*

Here it is, and Heath is the last one out;




 :'(

Well done, I'm thinking. Tears in my eyes - again.  :'(

Also, one has to wonder about the choice of the speaking scene; it contains the most famous line from Brokeback, of course, but then comes "Why don't you - Why don't you just leave me be, hunh?" and well.... that seems to carry a message that isn't just Ennis's at this point.

I actually liked it. Heath gets more screentime than the rest. I also liked the fact that they didn't honor just anglosaxon actors but also the ones from countries like Germany, Spain or Finland and those who work behind the camera that are always invisible and unheard of. I thought it was very good.

Mikaela:
I agree, certainly. Was delighted they included Ingmar Bergman - the iconic shot of the knight and Death playing chess, and the image they used of the man himself must have been from the glory days quite a while back because I hardly recognized him. So used to seeing the elderly Bergman in images. Which of course is a strong reminder that he as well as nearly all the others had gotten to live long and eventfully, leaving a full life's rich legacy of many years' creativity behind...

*sigh*
