...special galleries to prevent any mixing. Alcohol sales at the stadium were banned on the night of the game.

...Magical Kingdom is a little short on enchanted subjects. The fifth branch of the Happiest Place on Earth has been criticized for being too small and offering too few rides, but the The Walt Disney Company hopes to inject a little fairy dust into the place by adding a hitherto missing ingredient: the iconic "It's A Small World" ride - a boat tour through an air-conditioned world of singing and dancing dolls sporting Disney's idea of their country's traditional costumes in locales both real and imagined.

These hitherto unknown artists performed their song without pomp or circumstance and delivered the most earnest and hopeful acceptance speech at the ceremony. But what made that moment so special was that it was so anti-Oscar. Indeed the rest of the ceremony left me entirely spent. I felt like Daniel Day-Lewis...
