After the envelopes: Did the right people win?
A few big surprises on Hollywood’s biggest night, especially in the actress categories. Marion Cotillard came out of nowhere for her best actress win, and Tilda Swinton shocked with her supporting actress win for her role in ‘Michael Clayton.’ The other biggies held some suspense, especially with the ‘There Will Be Blood’ and ‘No County for Old Men’ battle, but the Coen brothers and their film, much of which was shot in Texas, carried the day, winning best director and best picture. As for Diablo Cody’s win for best screenplay, we’ll spare you our vitriol.
What do you think of the night? Did the right folks win? Who got snubbed?
