The Coen brothers really deserve that, as does No Country for Old Men. 'Oscars get it right' shock! If you had told me ten years, five years, or even just one year ago that the Coens would be getting a directing Oscar one day, I'd have had carted you away!

Daniel Day-Lewis and Javier Bardem's awards are both very well deserved. I have not seen Marion Cotillard's performance but I have heard it was very good. I suspect the Oscar people though giving three Brits acting awards would just be too much and our press would have never shut up about it XD
