And you were worried that all anyone would focus on was the fall. By my estimation, the fall does always get mentioned, but in the context of articles/columns whose headlines are basically "Jennifer Lawrence Is Officially The Coolest Woman In Hollywood And I Want Her To Be My BFF."
On Sunday night that woman charmed literally everyone, and the fall just added to it.
Whenever I remember that freak-out scene in the restaurant, I think she deserved the Oscar.
Brad: I'm starting to suspect she fell on purpose (not really). I think my favorite headline was at Grantland: "How to Move on Now That Jennifer Lawrence Has Stolen All Our Hearts." I was like, yeah, that's pretty much how I feel.
Mette: She totally deserved it in my opinion as much as I loved Jessica Chastain's performance too. That restaurant freak-out and the ensuing scene outside theater are so great because she really lets you see how she's using those freak-outs to try and get through to him.
