If the ugly dress theory is true, things are looking up for Diablo Cody. So far, the winning ladies are in the most hideous dresses of the night.
Best actress Marion Cotillard wore a scaley fish-like gown. She might have screeched her acceptance speech a la Daryl Hannah in “Mermaid.”
Best supporting actress, Tilda Swinton, wore a dress that looked like a hefty sack. I guess she went with hefty, hefty, hefty, instead of wimpy, wimpy, wimpy.
So if the bad dress is a good luck charm, things are looking up for Cody and her wild-about-rhinestones gown. Daniel Day Lewis might also fare well, since his wife, Rebecca Miller, is wearing a gemstone-and-crazy dress.
