It's His Industry, All Right


       Granted there's limited time for getting words about the Oscars accurately onto paper when the show happened Sunday eve, and the L.A. leading newspaper has to get oodles of quotes, photos, and observations into the public's hands only a few hours later.

       A little muff here and there is almost inevitable.  But it's nice when the uncaught mistake also reenforces the intentions of the statement.

     
       "Reese Witherspoon was all smiles as she stopped to chat on the red carpet.  The best actress nominee for "Wild," a film she also produced, said that at this stage in her career, her priorities have changed.  'It's about creating strong women's roles in his wonderful industry.'"


       "This," was no doubt intended, but women's relative lack of power in Hollywood was later a target during the ceremonies as well.
