Before Best Picture was awarded, Neal Patrick Harris finally opened “His Nominations” briefcase — a running joke of the night in which Octavia Spencer was entrusted to guard. Other than the opening number, it was Harris’ finest moment of the night. Not that he isn’t a charming host, but I was expecting more spontaneous song breaks, a-la Billy Crystal.
