2011 Academy Awards Winners List


All Hail The King! The critic-favored The King’s Speech beat out Facebook drama The Social Network and animated hit Toy Story 3 to take home the coveted Best Picture Oscar at Sunday night’s Academy Award. In total, royal British drama picked up a total of four Oscars as Hollywood celebrated film’s biggest night, hosted by Anne Hathaway and James Franco.

Colin Firth won the Academy Award on Sunday for his lead role as stammering wartime monarch King George VI in the flick. Filmmaker Tom Hooper won the Academy Award for directing The King’s Speech. Other big Oscar winners include Christian Bale, who clocked his first Best Supporting Actor trophy for playing a drug-addicted former boxer in The Fighter, and a heavily-pregnant Natalie Portman, the potential latest victim of the “Best Actress Curse” after winning for her emotionally-disturbed ballerina in Black Swan.
