It's not exactly surprising that some would react like this. But she would never have voted for the movie anyway. She prefers movies with dripping sentimentality like Saving Mr. Banks or The Butler. there are many on her age. That's why those movies exists in the first place.

Hopefully most other Academy members have moved beyond the 1950's. after all, they awarded "No Country For Old Men." But I fear Hope (who I've never heard of) is typical of most Academy voters. I also don't think Scorsese is beloved by the Academy despite his win for "The Departed."

It would be awesome if the screenwriter was William Goldman.

I'm not surprised by this reaction. This type of mindset from academy voters is what caused Michael Fassbender to be snubbed for Shame after all.

Really? Academy members are shocked by the disgusting behavior? Wasn't Hollywood built on orgies and quaaludes?

The Academy gave an Oscar to Mr. Quaalude himself: Roman Polanski.
