Some of these awards were picked simply because that's what the DD nominated. I disagree with a portion of their performance nominations and I hope the TONY committee is smarter.

I saw GREY GARDENS the other night. Though there is quite a bit I'd change about it structurally, she was astounding. The only other performance I've ever seen that even begins to come close is Richardson in CABARET.
