oscar2.jpgYes, The Coen Brothers racked up a series of gold men, including best picture. The real treat for those watching the 3 hour+ broadcast was the live performance of "Falling Slowly" from Once which fittingly won best song. After Marion Cotillard's win for best actress, I can only urge folks to go out and get a copy of Jeux D'Enfants (aka Love Me if You Dare).
