In which I slobber over Jack Twist some more

According to Blogger.com's bylaws, every responsible blogger is permitted one posting of ridiculous fanboy gibberish (or what Andy would more accurately term, "RF"; for clarification, send an email to andy.diaz@gmail.com)

So here's mine.

To the surprise of British film industry wags, Brokeback Mountain swept the British Academy of Film Art awards last night, winning Best Picture, Director, and Adapted Screenplay. The most-nominated film, The Constant Gardener, won just one award.

The biggest upset? Jake Gyllenhaal wins Best Supporting Actor; this was a category in which "the George twins" (in Jake's words), nominated for Syriana and Good Night, Good Luck were supposed to prevail.



The boy gave such a guileless acceptance speech that even Clooney looked happy he'd lost. And on his way to the podium he almost kissed costar Heath Ledger.

Awright, I'll shut up.
