Tonight was the glitziest night in Hollywood. The 80th Academy Awards took place, and it was a great show. The big winner was "No Country for Old Men", which took home 4 awards. The movie won Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, plus a Screenplay award. Yet, there were some big surprises. Tilda Swinton won Best Supporting Actress for her role in "Michael Clayton." She gave a great speech by thanking her agent and the cast of the movie. Another big surprise was Marion Cotillard winning for Best Actress in her role in "La Vie En Rose." She is a young, beautiful, talented actress from France. Other big winners were Daniel Day-Lewis for Best Actor for "There Will Be Blood", Javier Bardem for Best Supporting Actor for "No Country for Old Men", and Diablo Cody for Best Writing (Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen) for "Juno." The show's host Jon Stewart was a great choice. He was hilarious, and serious at odd times. Way to Go, Jon!
