A great night at the Oscars for The Departed with the film deservedly taking The Best Picture Oscar and it was presented by Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton! A magic moment, I'm just so happy! The ultimate accolade to the fine work done by all involved. Martin Scorsese won Best Director at last and received a wonderful standing ovation from his peers, a tribute to the position of respect he holds in the hearts and minds of so many. I think my favorite moment of the whole night was Jack giving Marty a bear hug backstage after he won! The Departed also garnered Oscars for William Monahan who won for Best Adapted Screenplay and for Thelma Schoonmaker who won in the Best Editing catergory. I'll be back with photos of Jack Nicholson who was sporting "the Kojak" look tonight! One useful side effect of the media interest in Jack's new hair-do, which was necessary for his role as a man dying of terminal cancer in The Bucket List, is that we now have a release month for the film, which according to the
San Francisco Chronicle will be in theaters in November. In the meantime head over to
Oscar.com you can check out the "thank you cam" videos.

I am so happy The Departed won! As someone else said, it's not often the Academy gets it right... but this time they get a gold star. :o)
I didn't watch, though. I never really do. I knew Jack'd be there, but as much as I love him I can't sit around all night watching celebrities worship themselves just so I can get a thirty-second glimpse of his great smile - especially when I can just as easily pop one of his movies in. :o)

thats wicked that The Departed won all that it did, its my second favorite movie of all time, my first is Batman, the one where Jack played the joker, but why is he bald? is it for a part or something?

IMO, Miss Sunshine deserved it, The Departed is such a great movie, but Sunshine is better!
Anyway, congratulations Martin, Jack, DiCaprio and the whole staff for this award!
