The big showdown had been expected to come for the Best Picture and Director awards with former husband and wife team James Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow going up against each other in a battle of cinema art versus mass appeal. Bigelow seemingly won this one hands down.
The 82nd Academy Awards were hosted by Steve Martin and actor Alec Baldwin and took place at the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center last night. Before I passed out I was able to follow women of the pre-show (bringing you some Amanda Seyfried news). The night was owned by Kathryn Bigelow and Hurt Locker, as Bigelow became the first female director to win an Oscar for Best Director, while her film went on to also win top honors (among other awards).
Check out the rest of the night’s winners…
