Picture this: it's the new millennium. There are movie stars, the box office overflows. The 'sequel' peeks her head over the horizon, she has yet to show us how formidable she can be. Television? We don't truly know her. Any movie stands a chance to make money, but Oscar has her own set of rules. The pomposity! The artifice! The performances of the presenters, the winners, and always, always, the losers. Two women needed to discuss, and they have some notes.
