I was so sad GC was down yesterday!

Couldn't poise this thread.
Just curious to know everyone's views on the Oscars Sunday. I'm not sure if this is already being discussed in other forums, just wanted to post a thread here though since Sigma has made a first in this area before. Soror Hattie McDaniel was the first Black women to win Best Supporting Actress (correct me if I'm wrong) for her role in "Gone with the Wind" (can't remember the year).
I'm so proud of Halle and Denezel though I haven't had the opporunity to view either film, I know their excellence from other films (I loved John Q, but I'm a big fan of Denezel).
There is a lot of controversy surrounding the awards since some believe these were not the correct films for them to have such an honor bestowed. What do others think, since I haven't viewed them myself. But you best believe I have to now!
