The content of the document appears to be an email from Stephanie discussing Oscar-related matters. The subject line is "RE: Oscar diary" and there's an attachment named "Oscar story.doc" included in the email. The sender, Jeffrey, has received the attached story in his inbox as well. The main body of the email discusses the political unrest in Libya, with Omar Quadhafi denying that rebels are taking over Eastern Libya, and oil prices shooting over one hundred dollars a barrel. It also mentions the US government being on the verge of a shut down. Stephanie then talks about attending the 83rd Academy Awards in Los Angeles to attend a party thrown by film producer Bryan Lourd. She notes that "The King's Speech" is considered the front-runner for the Best Picture Oscar, but fans of "The Social Network" are passionate and have not conceded defeat. She also mentions meeting English director Tom Hooper on his first film for HBO, "Elizabeth I," which starred Helen Mirren and won several Emmy awards. She became a champion of Hooper's work and encouraged people to see his earlier works like "John Adams." The email goes on to discuss the film festivals where "The King's Speech" and "The Social Network" were screened, as well as other films that received attention such as "127 Hours" and "Black Swan." It mentions how cool Yale/NYU student James Franco appeared at the Hamptons International Film Festival and received a heroic standing ovation. Overall, the email appears to be a personal reflection on the Oscar season and the films that were in contention for awards during that time.
