And the oscar goes to.......... FREEHELD

With the oscars having been held last sunday I couldn't just not talk about them.

Firstly, because we weren't even sure there was going to be an award ceremony what with the writers strike, but secondly, well.....everyone else is talking about them so why not me?! :)

But.......that is where the comparison ends because unlike many, I'm not really interested in who wore what kind of gown from which designer or what kind of jewellry. Nor am I interested in who is dating who or did Jolie-Pitt attend. Nope, that's not me.

I was however interested in the winners list, especially because the short documentary Freehold was on the nominated list.

It's about a same sex couple of which one is terminally ill and requests that her pension be given to her partner.

It shows that no matter how liberal and open minded we think we are in this day and age, we all still have a long, long way to go before we can proudly and justifiably say that everyone on this
planet is ONE.
