'No Country' Rules

Denzel Washington had the chance to greet the Coen Brothers as they took to the stage one more time (their third trip of the night) to accept the Best Picture Oscar for No Country for Old Men. Producer Scott Rudin joined them and did a much better job with his speech than either of the Coens. Rudin said it was an honor to make Cormac McCarthy's book into a movie. He then thanked Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, and Javier Bardem, Miramax, Sydney Pollack, and his partner. Interesting tidbit for those not watching at home: the camera kept focusing on Frances McDormand who was about 100 times more emotional than her husband, Joel Coen.
