    p.s.: I'm still not sure about Joel Grey's Oscar win. him or Pacino?! A tough call, really.

    That's very kind of you - it's amazing what can be achieved with good lighting. You look pretty damn fine yourself, especially the picture in your introduction post in your Oscar blog.

    It's a judgement of Paris like decision between the 2 performances, especially in retrospect (knowing Pacino would be better in part 2 and that he eventually won for Scent of a Woman; or where Grey's career would go and how no-one really varies from his template on the role).

    This is one of the reasons why as much as I love and obsess over the Oscars I disagree with the whole concept of judging performances, especially when they are as varied as Joel vs. Al.
