82nd Academy Award Winners

Submitted by Melissa Molina on March 8, 2010 – 1:55 am2 Comments

The Katheryn Bigelow directed war drama The Hurt Locker ran away with the most Oscar gold this evening, including not only the coveted Best Picture category but giving Bigelow her first directorial win. This serves as quite the milestone in Oscar history as Bigelow goes down in history as the first female to ever nab herself the Academy Award for Best Director.

One of the more surprising outcomes of the night goes to James Cameron’s Avatar which got less than what was predicted by a many of us, and surprisingly getting the Academy Award for Best Cinematography. Up definitely got it’s recognition, despite losing the Best Picture category, and Crazy Heart got an Oscar more of love than previously anticipated by some.

    Congrats to Bigelow on becoming the first female director to win best director.

    The only one that really surprised me was Bullock winning Best Actress. I seriously thought Streep had that one. I will say that Bullock’s speech was great.

    And the opening was fantastic this year.
