While we're at it, will Tracey Ullman ever win an award?

IN MEMORIUM

Oh my, we certainly have lost some great talent this last year.

I love this segment of the Emmys and Oscars. I am such a sentimental person. I'm bleeding tears right now.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Believe it or not, its been nearly 2 years since John Ritter died. He was in last year's MEMORIUM.

I think John Ritter died last year.

Was it just me, or did we lose an extraordinary number of composers this year?

I always find that segment to be so moving.

Forgot how amazing Art Carney was.

onwiththeshow - I was thinking the same thing. Elmer Bernstein, Michael Kamen, and Jerry Goldsmith. I had no idea.

Wow, I can't believe its been so long since John Ritter died. But I do remember now that he was in it last year. Mr. Rogers too. Wow, that part is so moving, nd slightly depressing. All amazing talents who will be extraordinarily missed!

My favorite movie in the world in Out Of Africa. I have been a fan of hers ever since.

I think Sophie's Choice is her masterpiece (of many)

Yes, I agree. It is her masterpiece. But it's not my favorite movie.

I'm just delighted that she won.

(are you the person who posted about somebody from here being at the Emmys? I'm new, so am curious. Is she an actress?)

I was on set of The Manchurian Candidate with Meryl for seven days. She is the sweetest most down to earth woman. I adore her and learned so much from talking to her and watching her act that week.

Meryl Streep's performance in SOPHIE'S CHOICE is perhaps the greatest performance ever captured on celluloid.

I might even give up my autographs of Cheno and LuPone to have a "night hat" with Meryl.

I've only seen it once. It's not something I think I could ever see again. But the film is embedded in my mind and I could never forget that scene. Ever.
