Here's Best Actress! The 5 presenters are Marion (last year's winner), Sophia Loren, Shirley, Halle, and Nicole.

I really want to see Kate win. It's long overdue.

Is there a set time when the Oscars are about to end. Is it in about 30 minutes (or so)?

I'm hoping it'll be over by midnight... I have to get up at 6:30 tomorrow

YAY, Kate won!!!! Finally!

Marion is so cute when she talks. I like her. I still remember her speech last year: "There truly are some angels in this city!"

Now here is Best Actor. The 5 are Adrien Brody, Robert DeNiro, Ben Kingsley, Anthony Hopkins, and Michael Douglas.

@ Robert: "How did do it? How did he get all those jobs playing straight men?"

The cheers kind of died out for Michael Douglas
