Putting some of my Oscar commentary in context

[lumineaux]

(1) Marisa Tomei

Many people loved this dress.  I don' t see it.  It looks like she's being devoured alive by an origami swan.  An somewhere there's an anime porn movie based on just that theme.


(2) Whoopi Goldberg

Not epic awful.  More of a "I can't believe my mother wore that to the PTA dinner dance" awful


(3)  Freida Pinto

I like the sari-like feel and atypical color of this dress.


(4) Tilda Swinton and the Brides of Dracula from Todd Browning's 1931 version of the movie.  Need I say more?

Sophia Loren looks like Miss Havisham goes glamor, as done by a drag queen.

Sophia Loren looked as if she had been dead for about 20 years, resurrected, bronzed and then varnished. *shudder*

It's still Marisa Tomei and she's still yummy.

The dress - eh it's got a little style. What do I know.
