On Oscar night some of us had the big dilemma. The Indians were rooting for Slumdog Millionaire. The gays were rooting for Milk. Where did that leave the gay Indians?

Could we just keep Tina Fey and Steve Martin, and send everyone else home? "Don't fall in love with me," said Martin. Sorry, Steve. You're 35 years too late.

Winners, losers, tears of joy, "Slumdog," Hugh Jackman and more. The 81st Academy Awards Sunday are seen in photos below, updated throughout the sho...

A diffident, and at times, defiant, hour-long press conference took place with cast members of Milk recently, but it didn't yield much of a sustained discussion on the film's talking points.

After a great year for women at the box office, the lack of a film about a woman in the final five stings.

Yes, Mickey Rourke and Marisa Tomei received acting nominations. But The Wrestler -- one of the fiercest, most moving, most resourceful independent entries of the year -- was shut out in the major categories.

The Dark Knight was a critically acclaimed, monster box office hit with tons of buzz. In terms of domestic, unadjusted dollars, it was the no. 2 movie of all time.

Three different directorial approaches to cinema storytelling? Gus Van Sant's Milk, David Fincher's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and Woody Allen's Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
