78th Annual Academy Award

The curtain comes up tonight on Oscar's big night. The opening is a montage of academy award winning actors and others on a street. Dead and alive and the camera pulls back and it is Oscar city.

The opening is all the past hosts saying no they do not want to host. Here comes John to do his monologue. The routine is starting out a little slow. They warmed up to him towards the end but it really did not get going too much. At one point he was begging for laughs. He went to a short film that was ok.

She had problems walking out and lost her place in reading, a number of times and it became quite uncomfortable, especially with her lip smacking sound as well.
