Why do we care what type of dress Daniel Day Lewis's wife wore to the Oscars? More importantly, why do the Slate editors allow Dana to post this tabloid trash? Dana writes that Lewis's wife Rebecca Miller is "just too cool and smart to be wearing that dress unironically." Oh really, Dana? Thanks for the insight! Maybe after you're laid off here they'll give you your own column in Us Weekly. And she's obviously wrong about Miller purposefully wearing an ugly dress as a way of saying "fuck you" to everyone not married to Daniel Day Lewis -- right???? I know this comment was made with tongue in cheek, or perhaps even as a complete joke, and normally I would shrug it off, but it just seems so obvious to me that Dana makes this remark because this is precisely why she would be wearing an ugly dress if she were married to Day Lewis. Of course, Dana is on to something when she calls Lewis a "hyperevolved exemplar of superior humanity" -- he might be a true genius, not just an actor but a one in a billion artist who has chosen acting as his medium, as Mozart chose music or Shakespeare drama (I said "might. . ."). Dana acknowledges this, but she does not discuss his genius, his art, his humility, or, if her piece was supposed to be circumscribed to the award ceremony, the nature of his eloquent and gracious acceptance speech. Instead, she focuses on. . . his wife's clothes? Huh?
