OSCAR Winners

The Oscars have come and gone, and handed out all the statues on the biggest night of award season. Just as it led with the most nominations, The King's Speech dominated the awards with four victories, which included best director, best actor, and best picture. Still, there weren't a ton of surprises this year, especially in the acting categories, as we saw the same actors who've been sweeping the season take home their Oscar and join the triple-threat club.
