No Country for Gold Men


I can't really remember the last time I stayed up to watch the Oscars in their entirety but I have to say I enjoyed seeing the boys walking away with their much-deserved gold last night.

And then there's this guy --


Seeing Cormac McCarthy in Kodak Theater with his son was just the icing on the cake. Given all the years of serious, don't-mess-with-Texas author photos that have appeared over the years, it was awesome seeing Cormac on his feet, open mouthed with delight and hooting like a cowboy on a Saturday night, as No Country won best picture. Anybody got a screen-capture of that?

The Coen Bros. wins were tremendously satisfying. I have to say I loved Ethan's quip about his speechlessness earlier in the show.

I'm glad they won. I was surprise to see him at the Oscar's. After seeing his interview on Oprah he seemed like a fellow who was not big on being in the spotlight, but it was nice to see him there. Can't wait to see the movie The Road and how they will translate that.
