On Sunday in L.A., you're either at the show, at the parties or at home watching. I'm talking about the Academy Awards. This is a company town that virtually shuts down on Oscar night. Actually, the whole weekend will be a blur of Oscar craziness, and here to talk about that is Allison Hope Weiner. She's been covering Hollywood for a long time and writing for publications like Entertainment Weekly and the New York Times. And welcome to the program.
"Thanks. ___1___" Now you've lived here for a long long time, and you've been in the scene for a long time. What is it like here on the weekend? ___2___ "You can't move anywhere. I assume it's ___3___ I gets in New York when the president comes downtown. They've already ___4___ Hollywood. Everybody is scrambling to try to get into parties.

That kind of situation. So it's pretty crazy." And also, you have to be invited to the right parties. "Yes. There're some parties that are just the in parties. And a lot of people know that would be ___5___, which is actually cutting. It's gasless to shear. And it's greatly... completely pandemonium."
