Best Picture: There were so many fabulous movies nominated – all deserving of Oscars, but The Hurt Locker took the prize. I personally think the cast and crew of this movie won so many awards last night that they were running out of people to thank – but it was well-deserved!
Actor in a Leading Role: We were right when we said Jeff Bridges was likely to take this one, and he did. With a great speech that thanked his colleagues, fellow cast members and the director – he wrapped it up with a wonderful tribute to his wife and daughters.
Actress in a Leading Role: As predicted, Sandra Bullock won the award. In her usual graceful and funny manner, the actress mentioned the other four nominees, including her ‘lover,’ Meryl Streep. She also ended on a very heartfelt and tearful thank you to someone very important to her – her own mother.
Actor in a Supporting Role: Christoph Waltz was a graceful and fun winner of this award, and really deserved it. He was up against some tough competition and it was fun to watch him gain recognition for his hard work.
Best Supporting Actress: Mo’Nique for her role in Precious. With a beautiful acceptance speech, Mo’Nique thanked her husband for his support and for his encouragement to not ‘do what’s popular, but to do what’s right.’ We predicted this one correctly – yay!
