Oscar clips are a fun wrinkle of a ceremony. Who could forget Cate Blanchett’s reaction to her Elizabeth: The Golden Age clip? The actors and actresses can seem mortified or proud of anywhere inbetween, and it’s part of the appeal of the clips. The clips preceding each of the categories ranged from brilliant to downright weird. Let’s rank them 20-1…
The Weird

I love him.
Should Greta eventually win an Oscar in the future, 'twould only be fair to cut to Guillermo, cluthching his heart and professing his earnest reciprocated love for Greta. Guillermo was the night's biggest winner, but Greta's affection may have been the biggest prize of all.
Monday, March 5, 2018 at 3:30PM Jason from MNPP here, nursing my annual Oscars hangover but mostly feeling just fine about last night's winners. (The high I got off of James Ivory's Elio Shirt carried me through the whole show, honestly.) As far as a production the show had its highs (loved that cut quartz set) and its lows (really not feeling that war movie montage) but it's the two stand-out visual gags of the evening that will probably stand the test of time are the subjects of this week's "Beauty vs Beast" poll...
PREVIOUSLY We've got to give Jennifer Lawrence some credit because she actually held her own on The Film Experience against no less fierce an opponent than queen goddess mother Michelle Pfeiffer herself - Michelle still won last week's mother!-themed poll (of course) with 70% of the vote, but it would've been way worse for most mortals. Still, said Brad:
"Give me a movie where Michelle Pfeiffer taunts and tortures Jennifer Lawrence for six or more hours and I'll be happy forever."

Rita Moreno and Eva Marie Saint, that's who.
These two living legends showed up on the red carpet looking like your beyond-fabulous favorite aunt - Rita even wearing the very same dress she wore when she won her Best Supporting Actress Oscar 56 YEARS AGO. They then presented on the telecast to giant standing ovations, basking in the glow of the audience like the Queens of Cinema they are...

Just passing a love note to Eva Marie Saint for mentioning this dress while presenting the Costume Design Award last night...
