aslanti am a little offended by the fact that peter jackson couldn't fucking wash his hair for oscar night. or cut it. i mean, please. simple hygeine, right?
briefly: too many giant bows on the backs of dresses. uma thurman's dress, horrible. liv tyler's, nice, even if i'm sick of her elfy act. marcia gay harden, graceful at nine months, kind of like a greek restaurant, gold braid and dark blue drapery; also she had bride-of-frankenstein hair. nicole kidman's dress was overpraised, i think the ruffly-boob-balcony thing didn't turn out so well. the general trend of silky satiny dresses and long trains is hard to pull off, but there were no egregious offenders.
.
we drove to providence saturday morning, drove around to find the theatre where k is working this week. there really is a canal! a pretty city. with lots of bridges and steep streets and beautiful old neighborhoods full of old houses to die for. it was so bright---i had a camera but i couldn't seem to catch what i was seeing. it turned out to be a warm day and there were hoardes of undergraduates everywhere. it felt a little odd, like all the adults had been abducted, but we didn't really have the energy to wander far enough away from the brown campus to find other parts of the town. oh well. we shall return, jenn! we definitely need a tour guide next time.
