At 54 seconds, the movie world changed forever.


My mom called me as soon as they broke to commercial. My dad was in the background asking who the hell Trent Reznor was. My mom said "The guy in the giant poster Christine has!!"

Never thought a punk who made Pretty Hate Machine, who moved up to start his own Production Company and collaborate with amazing talent like Bowie and Johnny Cash; who wrote computer game scores and made tunes for movie soundtracks ... would win a Golden Globe - on his first nomination for the best score of the decade.

I was elated to hear that everyone was quiet to listen to Reznor and Ross speak. "He is so SEXY!" My mom squealed. Finally, she understood the appeal.

Even though I hated The Social Network, I understand it's significance to the movie world and Generation Y. And I am so happy Reznor can put a GG next to his Grammy. Maybe he'll even have an Oscar!
