82d Oscars 9:44 p.m. (adapted screenplay)
Rachel McAdam's dress leapt off the wall of an art gallery. It's
fullness is lovely. She and Jake Gyllenhaal are presenting adapted
screenplay. The first surprise of the night, at least for me, Geoffrey
Fletcher beats the "Up in the Air" guys for his screenplay for
"Precious." It's a nice moment. Sapphire, whose novel the movie's based
on, is crying, too. Oh, Geoffrey don't tell them that you're out of
words. The band is ready to pounce. But his pauses are so compelling
that the band can't bring itself to do it. Bravo.
