I LOVED that moment!

Almost as much as Franco in thights

Thank you Kate! I love you both. Melissa Leo is a total kook, but if that's what makes a good actor, then bring on the kook!

They should take her Oscar back just for that speech.

I disliked this speech because even the "fucking easy" was calculated. Leo made a spectacle of herself all season long.
From the ads, to the dresses, to the "fake surprise", she made sure AMPAS had enough for her for a while.

I just love her reaction when she said it.

I see Jose beat me to it, I don't ever take anything she says in earnest it just seems too contrived, which is what annoys me most. "The sister Amy" thing really pissed me off for some reason. Hope Amy (and Helena and Jacki) are back sometime soon.

Thank you Andrew! I wanted to slap whoever wrote her speech for her. When she did that whole "you up there in the cheap seats" routine I wanted for G-d's hand to rip the Kodak roof, grab that Oscar from her phony hands and just give it to someone else (anyone! Even Sharon Stone would've been worthier!)
To think she looked so normal in 09...

She took Steinfeld's Oscar home, yes. But I like a little crassness. If she's calculating in her speech I didn't detect it. And it's the most entertaining thing about this year's Oscars.

And the woman has connections, working with practically everyone in Hollywood. It will take a lot for those people to turn their back on her.
