LAFCA Quote of the Night

Paul Thomas Anderson didn't win for screenwriting last night - Tamara Jenkins' script for The Savages did - but he got off the line of the night, "If another fucking film critic criticizes one of my movies for being too long, I'm going to remind them of this ceremony."

Still, a good time, if a lot of a good time, was had by all, including the significantly slimmed down Scott Rudin, the contingent from Romania, chiefs from Vantage, Miramax, Searchlight, Sony Classics, and Strand, and a host of others.

It was a very good line...the difference being that no-one is likely going to claim that this awards ceremony was an all-time groundbreaking classic in the annals of great awards ceremonies.

If all the other ones end up being canceled, however, it may end up being the best awards ceremony of the year.
