...nuzzle the Actress statuettes to their respectively slim and ample bosoms. I want to celebrate a night of surprises, with dark horses galloping past favorites toward the finish line on the Kodak Theatre stage: "The Pianist" for Adrien Brody (the first man under 30 to win Best Actor) and Roman Polanski (at 69, the oldest to win Best Director), plus richly deserved prizes to Hayao Miyazaki's "Spirited Away" (the first foreign-language film to win for Animated Feature) and Pedro Almod?var's "Talk to Her" (the first foreign language to take Best Original Screenplay since...

Most of the students in the UNLV program are over 50. One is retired home contractor Jack Winston, 68, who in his early 20s performed in off-Broadway plays. He gave up the actor's life when he married, had a family and needed a "real" job. After he retired and moved to Las Vegas, he started dabbling in local theater. Four years ago, he enrolled in classes at UNLV. "It's not only fun," he says, "but it's forcing me to use parts of myself that have lain dormant for years...
