The hottest topic for the day is of course the
83rd Academy Awards which was held this morning in Hong Kong time. I was lucky enough not to be at work, so I managed to watch most of the show on TV.
The King's Speech wins big at Oscars today, with the film grabbing the
Best Motion Picture, the
Best Achievement in Directing, the
Best Writing, Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen, and of course, the
Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role,
Colin Firth. The trailer was so intriguing that I am definitely not going to miss this one in the cinema.
The
Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role goes to
Black Swan's
Natalie Portman, who went on to the stage with her unborn baby, received thunderous well-deserved applause for her stunning performance in the film, in which she has to act out psychotic symptoms of strong
delusions, visual
hallucinations and
paranoia.
A pity for the
Golden Globe super winner
The Social Network today as the film only managed to claim the
Best Writing, Screenplay Based on Material Previously Produced or Published, the
Best Achievement in Editing and the
Best Achievement in Music Written for Motion Pictures, Original Score.
Other highlights of the show was
Anne Hathaway, who has put herself in not less than 6 different dresses in one night, all of which stunningly glamorous! I bet some, if not all of them, are sponsored by Prada! She's never my type but did show off well today. Here's one of the dresses.
But talking about hot prettiness, I pick Scarlett Johansson in her see-through plum Dolce & Gabbana Qipao!
Toy Story 3 clinched the Best Animated Feature Film of the Year without much of a fight from
How to Train Your Dragon, but next year, the fight will be much tougher.

Inception wins several awards too, but the most deserved of all is the
Best Achievement in Visual Effects.
Just look at that! No movie got better this this year!
