The 85th Academy Awards was yet another one to add to the books. Hosted by the very funny Seth MacFarlane the winners were surprising in some categories and not in others. As always, what the celebrities wear to the awards is very important to the designers and to the public who judge the celebrities clothing; more for the women then men. There are 24 awards to be handed out and each won has many nominees hoping to get the award. The biggest movie names were: Skyfall, Argo, Les Miserables, Silver Linings Playbook, Life of Pi, Zero Dark Thirty and Paperman.
Skyfall was another James Bond movie that I would regard as one of the best, definitely Daniel Craig's best Bond movie but also one of the best ever. The new series of Bond movies captures the audience from the action movies we see today with the James Bond character we all like, except for Quantum of Solace. The Bond series celebrated 50 years of making movies and they are preparing to release another new movie with Daniel Craig in the next James Bond film. Skyfall won Best Sound Editing and Best Original Song.
Les Miserables did not do as well as everyone expected but it still won Best Sound Mixing and Makeup and Hairstyling. Silver Linings Playbook had its lead actress, Jennifer Lawrence win Best Actress. Life of Pi won Best Visual Effects, Best Cinematography, Best Original Score, and best director Ang Lee. Zero Dark Thirty left with less then expected just Best Sound Editing. Paperman won best animated Short Film. Finally Argo won Best Film Editing, Best Writing, and the biggest award of the night Best Picture.
Argo was a fantastic movie that I saw opening night. As soon as I left the theater I kowe it was going to win best picture. The movie followed a great story that was told ver well. The cinematography was amazing and every part of the story held meaning. I am very happy to see Ben Affleck win, because he has been working hard on this project and he did a great job. Congratulations cast and crew of Argo.
