I almost made it through the Oscars. I knew who was going to win the big ones so seeing it to the end wasn't a priority on Sunday night. Probably the coolest moment was when Glen Hansard and Markta Irglov won for their original song in the movie Once. I liked Once...it was a good movie. Glen Hansard is the lead singer of the Frames and we saw them a couple years back. It was nice to see people so genuinly thankful to win. They didn't act like they were shocked they way someone at home might be if they found out they had just won an Oscar for Cinematography. They were thankful and excited and I was glad that Markta Irglov got to come back and say a few words. The song is really good.
