I had to laugh this morning when I saw the photograph of the Kennedy Center honorees in the balcony next to George and Laura. They included a druggie (Brian Wilson), a diva with a huge gay following (Diana Ross), and the director of The Last Temptation of Christ (Martin Scorsese). What must George have been thinking? ("Why couldn't they have honored Bo Derek and Chuck Norris?") But then, what must the honorees have been thinking?
It's nice to see Steve Martin honored -- Roxanne and All of Me are among my favorite movies, and he should have been nominated for an Oscar for both of them. But has the Kennedy Center ever honored Woody Allen? Or did the Soon-Yi thing put an end to that possibility forever?
