On a personal level, I feel honored that I've met Carson. On a different personal level, I'm glad that the Nobel is celebrating someone shy, peculiar, intense. May all the weird/funny/creative/dark/introverted people of the world live long and prosper.

Please do not judge the Chronicles of Prydain based on that shitty Disney Black
Cauldron movie.
I can't think of a great series that was more disgraced by a shitty adaptation than Lloyd Alexander's masterwork. Ok, the Horned King and his castle were kind of cool (RIP John Hurt), and everyone involved with those two things deserved an award, but everything else about the film was horribly botched.

A perfect movie, until they sleep together, after which Meg Ryan's character becomes much flatter and less interesting as the movie lurches toward its happy-ending finale. Don't get me wrong, that ending still makes me cry, and Billy Crystal's whole "phone moi" desperation leading up to it is funny, but the Magic of this movie is Meg Ryan, who is so perfect for this role that ! mostly just gaped in awe at her for the first half of the picture. The only comp have is Cary Grant, in that she has a star quality that absolutely no one can replicate, so much so that she doesn't get credit for how good she is. People are always like "Cary Grant just played Cary Grant in every movie he was in" and I'm like "*you* try playing Cary Grant! Who else can do [points at screen]
*that*! Nobody, that's who." And that's Meg Ryan as romcom heroine. You can't duplicate her affect, her voice, her face, that combination of cute and earnest and funny and emotionally believable. Even through that awful late-80s hair, she is undeniable, irresistible, disarming. Nuclear-grade levels of endearing.
