What was it William Goldman said in his fine book about working in Hollywood, "Adventures In The Screen Trade"?
Nobody knows anything.
He was right. I know nothing.
So, what did I get re. Oscar predictions? 3 out of 8? Pretty poor. I also forgot to put my prediction down for Best Foreign Film. Just as well. I would have gotten that wrong as well. (I would have gone for "Pan's Labyrinth".)
Looking at the night overall, my score rate was better. I got 12 right out of 24. Lorraine got 9 out of 24. I win. I will be looking forward to our meal out. Don't you find that food always tastes better when somebody else is paying?
