The Oscars am the biggest movie event of every
year, and are always a star- studded, glamorous occasion. Their full title
is the Academy Awards', and the first awards took place in 1929, when fdms had
only just begun being talkies, and not silent movies. The famous golden 'Oscar'
statuettes represent the greatest honor an actor or film-maker can
achieve.
This year's event (2006), the 78th Academy
Awards, was as fashionable as ever, with designer frocks and tuxedos parading up
the red carpet. The awards this year were dominated by intimate,
thought-provoking films, and there was a good spread of awards, no one film
swept the board. Crash was the surprise winner of the coveted best film
award, as well as two other awards. The film is about racial tension in Los
Angeles, and features an ensemble cast, lots of different characters with no one
lead role.
Despite being tipped as the hottest favorite
ever to win best picture, Brokeback Mountain only won three of its eight
nominations, including a best director award for Ang Lee. George Clooney
won the best supporting actor award for Syriana, but was also nominated as best
director for Good Night and Good Luck. He joked about why he likes directing,
"You can get old and grey and they still let you do the job!" British films had
limited success, but a seven- month pregnant Rachel Weisz collected the best
supporting actress award, and British-made Sit Shooter won in the best short
film category. British animators Nick Park and Steve Box were surprised
and jubilant that their film Wallace and Gromit in the Curse of the Were-Rabbit
won the animated film award.
They collected their award wearing
matching oversized stripy bow-ties. Steve Box commented, "We really didn't think
we would win because a lot of the films were worthy and meadingfhi and deep and
our film is just ridiculous."
