Marion Cotillard blew me away as French icon and tortured chanteuse Edith Piaf in the biopic La Vie En Rose.
The talents behind her hair and makeup transformation deserve props, but Cotillard's fierce and wrenching portrayal of Piaf, particularly in her ravaged morphine addiction phase, totally earned her that Oscar. And .

Well, the results are in, and we now have movies that will forever be known as Oscar-winning. A lot of you said you go see the films once they're nominated, but if you didn't get to all of them before Sunday's show, maybe now's the time.

There were smiles all round on Sunday night, as the British Academy of Film and Television award winners were announced in London. Jonathan Ross presented the award ceremony, in place of the familiar Stephen Fry, and the gongs were split fairly evenly over the best films of last year.

The British Academy of Film and Television Arts has announced the 2008 nominations, which largely mirror the Globe noms — though there's (unsurprisingly) even more love for Atonement on the other side of the pond.
