Oscar Night!

It's that time of year again... the awards season reaches its climax tonight in LA with what is still the most prestigious film accolade going, critics and claims of bloatedness and irrelevancy be damned! Girl on Film will be blogging the evening together with adlerkuss, and invites fellow film fanatics / insomniacs to join us on the virtual sofa from 1am CET. adlerkuss has kindly provided an Oscar sweepstakes sheet and drinking game rules over on his page to further enliven the proceedings. Also worth checking out is the Guardian's interactive Oscar voting site, via which you can also watch some of the nominated shorts. Will The Artist become the first silent movie since Wings to scoop Best Picture? Will Meryl Streep lose both her shoes and swear into the mic? Tune in with us this evening to find out. Or, y'know, read it in tomorrow's papers, but where's the fun in that?
