Award Season & Kate Winslet

Have you ever heard of The Critic's Choice Awards?
Well. StinkyLulu sure hadn't & was sorta surprised to watch the telecast this evening. Award season is really underway, I guess -- last night The People's Choice, tonight The Critic's Choice, this sunday The Golden Globes... When will it stop?!?!? Not for another 2 months -- & in the midst of all that, you lovely reader, have the Lulus to enjoy as well...
In tonight's award romp, Kate Winslet was up for two awards: Best Supporting Actress for Finding Neverland and Best Actress for Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. She won neither, losing to -- respectively -- Virginia Madsen and Hilary Swank. But, having just seen Finding Neverland this afternoon, StinkyLulu decided to just be in movie star love with the lovely, funny & always impeccable Ms. Winslet.
See, StinkyLu was a little slow to warm to the charms of bonny Kate. Never much for Jane Austenish froufrou, Titanic nearly sank StinkyLulu's appreciation of Ms. Winset... But with her turn as the incredible Clementine in Eternal Sunshine and as Peter's Mum in Finding Neverland... Holy bejeebus. The woman can work StinkyLulu's heartstrings. Seeing her, Julie Christie, Johnny Depp & that Freddie kid who's gonna be in Charlie & the Chocolate Factory in Finding Neverland today... Well, it was nice to enjoy the preponderance of A-list talent squished into one movie for a change...
StinkyLulu doesn't think it's gonna be Kate's year to win any prizes. Alas. But golly she's a treat to watch...
