In case you missed it, The Academy Awards have already come and gone. The Academy has been thanked, the Oscars have been distributed, and the tabloids have made lists of the Oscars best and worst dressed. In case you avoided all of that, but you’re still curious about the results, here are the winners of the 10 “big ones.” Now we can all relax. That is, of course, until tax day and the ensuing debt settlement relief.
1. Best Picture
“The Hurt Locker” had controversy before it won the Oscar for Best Picture. I was pretty surprised by this Academy Award; I thought “Avatar” was going to win that award.
2. Best Directing
Because “The Hurt Locker” won Best Picture, it was not-so-surprising that director Kathryn Bigelow won the Academy Award for Best Directing. I guess James Cameron will just have to be satisfied with his hundreds of millions of dollars and the three Oscars he already has.
3. Best Actress
Sandra Bullock got a lot of attention for her acceptance speech when she won the Oscar for Best Actress, thanks to “The Blind Side.” Of course, her mention of planting one on Meryl Streep in her speech didn't hurt either. The feedback about her was pretty good.
4. Best Actor
Jeff Bridges has deserved a Best Actor for some time, was up on his 5th nomination, and thoroughly deserved the win for “Crazy Heart.”
5. Actress in a Supporting Role
No one seemed to be surprised that Mo’Nique won the Oscar for supporting actress. She got Academy Award gold for her turn in “Precious.”
6. Best Supporting Actor
Christoph Waltz won the Oscar for supporting actor for his performance in “Inglourious Basterds.” The film had eight nominations for Quentin Tarantino's film, but the Best Supporting Actor was the sole win for “Inglourious Basterds.”
7. Writing in an Adapted Screenplay
Besides Mo’Nique’s supporting actress win, “Precious: Based on the Novel ‘Push’ by Sapphire” also scored the Oscar for Best Writing in an Adapted Screenplay.
8. Best Writing in an Original Screenplay
“The Hurt Locker” won a total of five Oscars, including Best Original Screenplay. Other Academy Awards for “The Hurt Locker” were for sound and editing.
9. Best Animated Film
The Academy gave the award to Pixar's “Up” the Best Animated Feature Film of 2009. With its $ 293 million box office earnings, “Up” producers won't ever need debt settlement relief.
10. Music: Best Original Score
“Up” also took home the gold for its soundtrack, an original score by Michael Giacchino. That concludes the 10 big Oscar winners. you can look at Oscar.com for more.
