Red Carpet Favorites

A very dull year at the box office. My favorite flick, BEGINNERS, wasn't even nominated for an Oscar.  My other favorite pick, TREE OF LIFE, did garner a best picture nomination, but there was hardly any buzz making it, at best, a long shot to win an award.  Nonetheless, I gathered with friends to celebrate the annual tradition of bestowing golden statues on those in the film industry.  The highlight of the evening was the red carpet, and although I coveted some gowns, overall it to was a lackluster year.
