This is Karla but I don't want to go to the trouble of registering. I hated Sideways. Anybody who talks to me knows this; the end didn't justify the pain of getting there and the monologuing was a BIT too obvious. This movie has appealed to all critics everywhere for I don't know what reason but it's not the kind of movie anyone will remember or rent and watch in 5 or 10 years. Then again, the Oscars, Grammys, etc. are far more likely to reward the flash in the pan than the artist who will last (see the Counting Crows losing best new artist of the year to that HO Sheryl Crow... I still think that was just a typo. BREAK UP WIT HER, LANCE!). I am SO disappointed that the best movie of the year (Eternal Sunshine, which I can't wait to watch a third time) received so little mention: "here Kate, we'll toss this to you because we're so proud you've finally overcome your 4-hour Ophelia and Titanic associations." And though it was nice to give a nod to Maria Full of Grace, my money's on Hilary Swank. Sure, Whale Rider chick won, but that was because she was 12. (Is anyone reading this?)
This is Joel S., I didn't want to register, either: Sideways seems to be an interesting movie, in that it seems to break down between men, who seem to love it, and women, who either are indifferent, or just hate it.
And the girl from Whale Rider didn't win...she was only nominated, Charlize Theron won, for Monster.
