Some expected results in the BAFTA's (Britain's version of the Oscars). Brokeback Mountain won best film, which given the buzz that's been surrounding this "gay cowboy" movie, isn't surprising. I was happy that Wallace and Gromit won the Best British Film BAFTA. I'm a huge fan of Wallace and Gromit and will be cheering them on during the Oscars. ( I might even go to LA and cheer them on in person!)
Wallace and Gromit won't be the only British "actors" chasing an award at the Oscars. In fact, British actors and actresses are quite common in Hollywood. What is surprising is the number of people I meet in Japan that seem to think that ALL Hollywood actors are from America. Do you know which actors are American and which are not? Well, since I'm in such a good mood today, I've created this short quiz for you:
