Oscars in Rewind: Falling Slowly Provides Best Oscar Moment —
Cinematical
A lot of people will be talking about Marion Cotillard today, whose teary-eyed acceptance speech was just beyond cute. But I feel the night's greatest moment came in two parts -- first when Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova performed Falling Slowly (from the movie Once ) on stage, and then when both accepted the Oscar for best song. In a very cool moment, Irglova was cut off at the mic ...

Reel Fanatic
For someone who watches as many movies as I do, I have a rather perilous confession to make: I often zone out in the middle of the Oscars. I can't be the only person who usually watches the first hour or so, then turns it off for the middle third and then comes back for the big guns. Last night, however, it managed to hook me from start to finish. I'm sure there's gonna be some carping from ...

“Falling Slowly” by Irish musician Glen Hansard and Czech-born Marketa Irglova from the small film “Once” has won the Academy Award.
