Tinsel town’s night of nights ended with some well-deserved wins across the board, culminating in the award for Best Picture.
An array of brilliants films were up for nomination, but "12 Years a
Slave” ultimately took home the honors for its incredible story of
Solomon Northup, a free man who struggles to survive as a slave in
pre-Civil War America, while Lupita Nyong'o gave a touching tribute
speech for her Best Supporting Actress win for the same film.
“Gravity” also proved to be a big winner on Sunday, stealing seven
academy awards from Best Director through to Best Visual Effects, even
though Sandra Bullock lost out on her Best Actress award to Cate
