A Night at the Oscars '13

Monday, February 25, 2013

Seth McFarlane opens the ceremony with several performances, such as "Be Our Guest". 
Channing Tatum and Charlize Theron auditioning for Dancing with the Stars. 
JGL, Seth and Harry casually dancing together at the Oscars.  
Christoph Waltz wins Best Supporting Actor for Django Unchained. As he should have.
Catherine Zeta-Jones performing "All That Jazz" from Chicago.
Jennifer Hudson being a boss. You're gonna loooooove...maaaay. 
The Greatest Performance at the Oscars. Vive la France.
Anne Hathaway winning for Les Mis. My heart melted during her entire speech. 
Adele performing her Academy Award-winning song, Skyfall
Chasing Ice up for an Oscar in Best Original Song. Watch the documentary!
Pre-tears and always winning hearts: Adele for Best Original Song.
Ang Lee for Best Director in Life of Pi. 
Only Jennifer Lawrence can make winning Best Actress look so graceful. 
Daniel Day Lewis/Abraham Lincoln for Best Actor in Lincoln.
MObama herself announcing the award for Best Picture.
And Argo wins Best Picture! Too bad I didn't see it...

As we all already know, last night was the 85th Academy Awards at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood. In retrospect, I really wish I saw more of the movies that were up for an Oscar, such as Lincoln, Argo, or Beasts of the Southern Wild. I did, however, get the chance to see amazing movies like Les Miserables and Django Unchained, and I was so excited to see them take home some awards. Speaking of Django...poor Leo. *pours out some champagne on the floor*. To me, this was the funniest and one of my favorite Oscar ceremonies I've seen; Seth McFarlane was hysterical and completely
crude/inappropriate -- obviously I loved every second of it. These pictures are some of my favorite award winners/moments from last night's ceremony. While I'm beyond thrilled that Adele both performed and won best original song for Skyfall, I was so happy to hear that Chasing Ice was in the same category. I watched it at the Lincoln Center movie theater with Brian last semester and it was the best documentary I've ever seen (ignoring the fact that my "Last Seen Documentary" list is rather small). My favorite part of the show: the Les Miserables performance. How do I know it was my favorite? I couldn't help but scream "Vive la France!" at my TV and weirdly want to pick up a history book on the French Revolution. And I couldn't care less about the French Revolution.


...Vive la France!
