Some very worthy winners there and I cannot comment yet on the Descendants as I am housed on the poor side of the Atlantic for films so they are released later and it isn't out until Friday 27th January in the UK. Naturally I'm very excited to see this but my expectations have increased by the week. The Artist is a film I saw recently which will be reviewed in the next few days but lets just say it will be favourable and there isn't any arguing with Meryl Streep winning Best Drama Actress for The Iron Lady.

Now to settle down and look forward to the Oscar nominations.which are announced on Tuesday 24th January.
