Moore was emotional, Eddie Redmayne was overwhelmed and the film Birdman soared
above its competitors at this year’s Oscars.
Moore, who took out the Best Actress
gong for her role in Still Alice, began her acceptance speech by saying
she’d read an article that said Oscar winners lived five years longer than the
rest of us.
“I’d really like to thank the
Academy, because my husband is younger than me,” she joked.
British rising star Redmayne, a
first-time nominee, struggled to find the words while collecting his Best Actor
statuette for The Theory of Everything but dedicated the win to the
film’s inspiration, Stephen Hawking.
But the night really belonged to Birdman,
the story of a washed-up superhero film star who tries to revive his career
with a play on Broadway.
