"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

King's Speech won, quester.

Blackhearted British journalists validate me. From the Guardian liveblog:

***********

And with that the curtain comes down on the 83rd Academy Awards. Playing us out is a troupe of grinning little Hollywood munchkins who may conceivably be children. They are singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Their eyes are alight and they are singing, singing as the curtain comes down. They shall sing forever, never pausing for breath until the lights go out and the carpet catches fire and Kirk Douglas orders them, for the love of God and in the name of all that is holy, to stop.

Stop.

Stop!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Did Natalie Portman neglect to thank Mila Kunis in her acceptance speech?

She didn't thank any of the cast, instead thanking, like, every member of the crew.
