Blind-Sided?

NOT--Sandy's Oscar for Best Actress did not surprise me ONE BIT.  Her inspiring performance in The Blind Side made me hope that someone like the talented Helen or phenomenal Meryl weren't running up against her but Sandra's role as "Mrs. Touhy" prevailed.

Although a tear-jerker, the Blind Side will open up your eyes to an enitrely different view.

Two Thumbs Up. Congratulations to the lovely Sandra Bullock.

DISNEY Presents:

Μια ανάσα πριν την απονομή των βραβείων Oscar ξεκινά μια κινηματογραφική εβδομάδα με πολλές επιλογές. Την παράσταση κλέβει η πολυαναμενόμενη «Αλίκη στην Χώρα των Θαυμάτων» του Tim Burton, ένα ευπρεπέστατο blockbuster, που θα μπορούσε όμως εύκολα να φέρει την υπογραφή του Chris Columbus. Το «Κουτί» του Richard Kelly είναι ένα φροντισμένο πλην ασυνάρτητο φιλοσοφικό θρίλερ με την Cameron Diaz και τον Frank Langella. Η «Σκοτεινή Πλευρά του Νόμου» είναι μια αστυνομική περιπέτεια από τον Antoine Fuqua («Ημέρα Εκπαίδευσης»). O «Κυνηγός» είναι ένα καλοστημένο θρίλερ από την Κορέα ενώ στους κινηματογράφους βγαίνουν το ποδοσφαιρικού περιεχομένου «Rudo y Cursy» με τον Gaelito Garcia Bernal και το «Guilt» του Βασίλη Μαζωμένου.

Kim Yuna Breaks the Ice with GOLD**

The picture says it all.

Kim Yuna of South Korea breaks the ice--after not succumbing to the "pressure of an entire country on her shoulders".  Breaking the ice is the least of it, Kim Yuna was the winner of GOLD for the women's long program of figure skatingand earned a world record of the highest scoring routine *ever of 150.6. No one has come close to the superstar skater's high score.

Kim's number one rival, Japan's Mao Asada did not walk away empty handed--she became the first woman to land two triple axels at the Olympics acquiring the SILVER medal of the evening.

Last but not least, the lovely Joanie Rochette of Canada stole BRONZE after an emotional performance.  Joanie's mother shockinly passed away a couple days before her short program performance--meanwhile, Joanie skated in her mother's spirit.

Congratulations to these female superior athelets, setting the bar for future Olympian figure skaters!
