 81 Academy Awards

  I made up my mind to write this motion picture post in a truly the Oscars language. You know it was the first year for me that i could watch the ceremony live. So i woke up at 5 a.m. and jumped to Foxmovies that was broadcasting the event. Let me confess it knocked my socks off. The most prestigious, elegant, luxerious film festival i 've ever imagined. It was held at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, California where used to be my fairy land in my childhood dreams and that night the ceremony proved it again to me!

While enjoying the program i was thinking of Fajr festival at Tehran and i recalled that it was never televised on any home channels and remembered how much i was hungry to see my star and what a nonsense comparison!

Whoops "Tardid" distracted my post. Have my apologies here and let me take you to the Oscars again!

Well if i wanna go on, it'll take long. I cut the chain off here  and let you know about its golden moments, worries and stress!

Brad Pitt, the favorite superstar of mine, was among the nominees and how original he actually was. Many pals wished him the Oscar but i was dead sure that Sean Penn was the target for the members of jury. Due to my anticipations i didnt't shock after hearing a name but Brad!  On the other hand, i 'm not tryin to challenge the decision!  It's fully clear to all that Sean has always been a big shot on the screan, though i haven't seen his Milk.

Special honors went to Jerry Lewis and how i felt this kind man's smile and tone were lovely.  In addition to this senior and old hand of the movies, Sophia Loren appeared on the stage to shine as another veteran of the art. Wow the whole was brilliant.

Top Oscar Moments:

There wasn't a dry eye in the house when the ledgers accepted the award on behalf of their son.

In search of her dad, Kate shouted,"Dad, whistle or something because i don't know where you are." She also said,"I'd be lying if I said I haven't made a version of this speech before. I think I was probably 8 years old and staring into the bathroom mirror, and this would have been a shampoo bottle. Well, it's not a shampoo bottle now."

"There are certain places in the universe you never imagine standing. For me, it's the moon, the South Pole, the Miss World podium and here." - The writer of  Slumdog Millioniare after winning the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar said.

It was right there, Ben Stiller, the funny guy with his false beard and gum! "You look like you work in a Hasidic meth lab," Natalie Portman told him.

and it was light, fun, dance, and cinema freak.
