Sandra Bullock: Acceptance speech better than Blind Side performance

Every once is a while there is a rare gem at the Academy Awards such as Sandra Bullock's acceptance fo the Oscar for best actress in The Blind Side  Sandra Bullock acceptance speech highlights Oscar winners 2010 list

Those painful speeches are usually a rambling discourse on some politically correct subject and/or an over-wrought tribute to the actor's family.

Bullock spoke form the heart with grace and style and sincerely thanked her mother while sending a genuine message about caring.

When you combine her Academy Award acceptance with her personal appearance the previous day for her Razzie, Bullock shot to the top of the list among actresses to be admired. Bullock vows to display Oscar, Razzie side by side.

The recognition of Sandra Bullock as the worst and best Hollywood has to offer only serves to highlight the arbitrary nature of the Oscar system.

It is completely ridiculous to single out one performance as the best.

The habit of so many organizations giving out best of awards only serves to illustrate the neurotic tendencies and defective nature of our competitive culture.

My favorite actors of all time: George C. Scott and Marlo Brando.

Why? Because they rejected these stupid Oscar trophies.

According to a 1993 Entertainment Weekly report, Scott was sleeping at the time his win for portraying Gen. Patton was announced. That is so sweet!

The whole event is fake competition and Scott didn't feel like he was in competition with his fellow actors when he worked his craft.

I wish more actors would suck it up and reject this phony competition.

Of course, Brando rejected his award for political reasons, which is even better.
