The Oscars proved last night that Hugh Jackman can sing, dance and handle spontaneity like a true professional of Broadway Theater. He kept pace with the award show moving rapidly and smoothly with a few technical glitches, which were not his fault.
My favorite parts of the telecast were the actor awards presentations where former recipients introduced the nominees and presented the awards. I thought, Shirley Maclaine’s presentation to Anne Hathaway stood out among the other almost equally worthwhile presenters.
Best moments of the telecast:
My favorite winner and most deserving was Kate Winslet for Best Actress in The Reader. Penelope Cruz is a talented and inspiring woman who lovingly accepted the award for Best Supporting Actress for Vicky Cristina Barcelona. And I loved Danny Boyle’s impersonation of Tigger as he accepted his Oscar for Best Director for Slumdog Millionaire.
It can’t go without mention of Ben Stiller’s parody on Joaquin Phoenix recent escapades in the media and talk shows.
Variety shares some of the back stage moments here, which is worth a quick visit to get a feel for the overall celebration of film at the Oscars.

The Oscar for Heather was one of the best things in the show. LOL at Jennifer and Angelina. Every time that one was shown, at the moment they showed the other one… Slumdog Millionaire for the win. It completely deserve it.I liked the way They give the top 5 Oscars, by using 5 actors each one.
