It was all glamour and pomp on Sunday night at the 85th Oscar Academy awards held in Hollywood as as the world's top movie stars tussled it out to be crowned "Best of the best" from their art pieces in various movie productions.
Although Steven Spielberg’s Lincoln led the pack with 12 nominations going into the 85th Academy Awards Sunday night, it was Life of Pi that walked away with the most Oscar statuettes – four, including Best Directing for Ang Lee. However, the night really belonged to Argo, which, despite the Academy snubbing Ben Affleck in the directing category, came out on top by nabbing the coveted Best Picture award.
Argo beat out eight other films – including Zero Dark Thirty, Django Unchained, Silver Linings Playbook, Lincoln and Life of Pi – and picked up two additional awards, Best Adapted Screenplay and Film Editing. A sweaty, stunned Ben Affleck gave a humble, quick-lipped speech that ended with him saying, “It doesn't matter how you get knocked down in life, ’cause that’s gonna happen, all that matters is that you get up.”
