Sweeney Todd Costumes
#11/39 - Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
I couldn’t wait to see this film in theaters- I wanted to see it the second it came out but was so busy that I didn’t get to it until a few days after Christmas. My love and anticipation for this film is a little odd- I’m a big Johnny Depp fan, and a HUGE Tim Burton fan, but really it was the Sweeney Todd part that drew me in.
Before I saw this film, everything I knew about Sweeney Todd I learned from Jersey Girl.
Oscar Nominations. Yay, Juno!
Buzz posted the Oscar noms, which were announced this morning, but I figured I'd repost them here, for sake of conversation. I am SO happy about some of these nods, especially: Javier Bardem for supporting actor - TOTALLY deserves it and will probably win Ellen Page for lead actress - she probably won't win but yay for her anyway Juno for best picture - again, it's the underdog and probably won't win, but what an achievement "Falling Slowly" from Once for best song - I really, really hope this wins over the songs from Enchantment. Diablo Cody for the Juno screenplay - I think she's going to win for best original.Moulin Rouge!
Moulin Rouge! is a 2001 musical film directed by Baz Luhrmann, based largely on the Giuseppe Verdi opera La Traviata. It tells the story of a young British poet/writer, Christian, who falls in love with the star of the Moulin Rouge, cabaret actress and courtesan Satine, played by Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman, respectively.August, In the Heights Named Top Shows at Tony Awards
Broadway came out swinging Sunday night for the 62nd annual Tony Awards, hosted by Whoopi Goldberg.

Besides the top award, In the Heights, a celebration of Latin-community life in Upper Manhattan, was recognized for its orchestration, choreography and score, with its writer, Lin-Manuel Miranda, stopping the show with his acceptance speech – delivered, in breathtaking fashion, as a rap song.And the Oscar Winners are...
