Your facts are not well formed. First of all, the Hurt Locker winning would not be an upset -- it is favored to win. Second, you cannot slap a gold seal on the back of an envelope and mail it per postal regs. Third, Poloroid? Really? Been out of business for some time and you cannot purchase the film. The award for a poorly executed (and written) article ... goes to you :)
