Oscar Winners' List at end of article
There weren't many surprises at the Oscars last night, as "No Country for Old Men" won for best picture as expected, and Daniel Day-Lewis and Marion Cotillard won for best actor and best actress.
Supporting actor and actress roles went to Javier Bardem for "No Country for Old Men," and Tilda Swinton for "Michael Clayton." Julie Christie was the sentimental favorite to win the best actress in a leading role award, but Cotillard winning could really only be called a mild upset at best.
Barden made history as the first Spanish actor to win an actor trophy.
