  I must admit I did find it a tad odd that random HUGE celebs were casual strolling onto the stage clutching umbrellas and soggy envelopes at Tropfest.  I mean,  Jesus Christ,  it was possibly the most poorly organised and executed awards ceremony in history,  I mean I've seen football club best and fairest awards running smoother than that.  Lets just say whoever the stage manager was should be shot.
 All 12 or 16 ( whatever)  director finalists ( including Alyssa acted like her usual self being completely wasted,  falling all over Adam and talking in mega bogan accent)  had to stand in pouring rain ( enduring many a 'wet tshirt comp' gag)  while the host frantically stalled whilst results were being counted,  then they bust out the big gun celebs to present ( one of whom didn't actually appear,  can't remember who it was but probably threw a diva tantrum about walking out in rain.
rightly so)  then out comes Alan Cummings,  Selma Hayek,  Josh Lucas blah blah blah plus the usual aussies Claudia Karvan,  Mary Coustas etc.  But that really was a little strange;  it was almost as if they happened to be walking by and somebody's gone 'Hey!  You're Selma Hayek!  then chloroformed her and pushed her onto a rain drenched stage.  Ah well,  the world works in mysterious ways.
