Picture
The Artist
Oscar night proved to be a success especially for The Artist. This black and white, silent movie continues to entertain and has justly been rewarded. Harping back to the Golden era of Hollywood audiences have taken it to their hearts. For the Oscars it takes the ceremony in many ways back to its roots and the first Academy awards in 1929.

Of course the Oscars is as much about "star gazing" as the films. Check out the Red Carpet for who wore what. Jennifer Lopez during the after show interviews, the Vanity Fair event, was noticeable for a revealing dress which left little to the imagination.
