"Sean Penn... showed he has no sense of humour when he arrived on
stage to announce the best actress nominees. Before reading out the
nominations, he decided to take issue with Oscar presenter Chris Rock
over one of his jokes.
Rock had opened the show by jokily saying: 'Why is Jude Law in every
movie I go to see? He's playing gay, he's playing straight, he's
British, he's American...'
But Penn refused to see the funny side and felt he should stand up for
Jude, with whom he's currently filming the drama All The King's Men.
He said: 'Forgive my compromised sense of humour but I want to answer
our host's question about who Jude Law is - he's one of our finest
actors."

After this, Penn segued into his prepared speech about actresses by
saying "What Jude and all other talented actors know is that for every
great, talented actor, there are five actresses who are nothing short
of magic."
