Oscars Oscar night liveblog recap: ladies win, show fails
Did you miss last night's snoozer? We stayed up so you didn't have to...

- At least someone kept Sacha Baron Cohen at home.
Ben Stiller, eh? Apparently it was Sacha Baron Cohen who was supposed to do an Avatar sketch, but it was banned because it might offend director James Cameron. That would have at least given the night a pulse: the most controversial moment was when a short film director totally got Kanyed by a drunk woman, who we hope is involved somehow in the winning movie. Awkward afterparty, for sure.
Still, Cameron got his when Katherine Bigelow and The Hurt Locker blew up Avatar with golden statues. Relive the glory in our liveblog.

Oscars Heather Young's best in show
NSCAD grad Heather Young just won Montreal's Canadian Student Film Festival.
Posted by Sue Carter Flinn on Wed, Sep 9, 2009 at 11:17 PM
When you're picking up tickets for the Atlantic Film Festival, grab
one for Atlantic Shorts IV (Monday, September 21, Park Lane, 7pm), so
you can give Heather Young an extra clap—-the NSCAD grad just won
Montreal's Canadian Student Film Festival. Dog Girl was inspired
by a teen Young worked with in New Brunswick, who was "very optimistic,
happy and hard-working," despite her difficult life. After an ex
started a rumour about the girl, it made Young wonder "what would make
him say something so cruel and so odd. The story came out of that, as
well as thinking about how badly teenagers can sometimes treat each
other."
