Mini-shakes at last night's Paramount Vantage party at STK for There Will Be Blood and (sort of) Into The Wild. At the moment this was taken (around 9:25 pm), original slurper Daniel Day Lewis and wife Rebecca Miller were standing about 45 or 50 feet away.

I hope THERE WILL BE BLOOD wins Best Picture so Monday's headline can read: "THERE WILL BE BLOOD drinks Coen Brother's milkshake."

still with the milkshakes? Did Lorne Michaels give pointers to the event planner?...because milkshakes stopped being funny or novel a loooong time ago...
...although the thought of DDL having to force a smile while surrounded by dozens of meatheads slurping, sucking, and yucking it up is priceless.
