The Oscars

Quick notes:

-The Artist was the big winner at the Oscars (received ten nominations, winning five awards; at the Golden Globes, the film was nominated for six and won three of them. The Artist became the first silent motion picture in 83 years to win Best Picture.
-Hugo (which won awards for sound and visual effects; 11 nominations, the most nominations for the night, taking home 5 awards) and The Iron Lady also won big
-The Oscars kept up a general trend with the Golden Globes (nominations wise)
-The British film industry was well represented (i.e. War Horse and The Iron Lady) but wasn't well represented winners-wise.
-Although many films had multiple nominations, only three walked away with multiple awards (the artist, hugo and the iron lady).
