When I was younger I watched the nominated films so as to make an informed prediction of the winners, or to have at least some point of reference. Now If I see one animated feature length film it probably came out on cable.
I tried to watch all the program yesterday but things got in the way and, silly me, I didn't immediately think of using our expensive DVR monthly service until after the big musical number. I looked and looked yesterday evening to find it bootlegged on YouTube, but it wasn't there. Apparently you could see every second of Miley Cyrus airtime but very little of Hugh Jackman and Beyonce swinging and swaying. Alas my persistence paid off.
It's probably gone by now, all that copyright stuff and all, but for a lovely 6 and one half minutes you could enjoy the spectacle and the grandeur of old Hollywood, when politics was quiet and women were glamorous and men were laconic until they had their top hats on and canes a' twirling.
