"Artist", a film in black and white silent on the rocky transition to Hollywood Radio "took top honors at the 84th Academy Awards Sunday night, with photos, best director and leading actor.
It was the first night - and a particularly good night for the French.
"Artist" was the first silent films to nab best picture honors from the first Academy Awards were held in 1929, when "Wings" won first place. For the first time in the history of Academy Awards, French actor (Jean Dujardin), as well as French director (Michel Hazanavicius) came into force in the upper part of the academy and lead prices.

"I love your country!" Dujardin said he received an award for playing a famous movie star whose career is a quiet key pad when the radio station to take over.
Dujardin and Hazanavicius are well known in France, but were unknown to American audiences as "artist" opens in theaters in the U.S. last year and began to sweep the awards for the season. (On Saturday, two men have won in their categories at the Independent Spirit Awards the film.)
"The Artist" went to the ceremony at Hollywood and Highland Center and televised live on ABC's 10 nominations. He has won five, including costumes and original music. Common sense was against the "Hugo" Valentine in the films of Martin Scorsese, who scored 11 nominations. It also took five awards in all categories of vehicles: cinematography, art direction, sound editing, sound mixing and visual effects.

Streep has been nominated 17 times more than any other artist. But she won only three Oscars, and the last time it was 29 years ago, the leading actress in "Sophie's Choice." Streep looked shocked when his name was called, especially Viola Davis was considered a harbinger of "help". Davis came over and shook the Strip before it led to accept his Oscar. "Iron Lady" also won for make-up for Mark Coulier and J. Roy Helland.
In another victory in the history books, Christopher Plummer, 82, was the best person to win an Oscar as an actor. He received support from the actor plays a widower who goes out of the closet in "beginner".
"You're only two years older than me, my dear? 'Where have you been all my life," my dear Plummer says he waved his statuette. He joked that he spent his life in order to repeat his question. "I am very proud to be with you," he told his colleagues of the candidate Victory Plummer seemed predetermined. He dominated the awards season in the category.
Octavia Spencer won supporting actress for playing the damper which is in the delightful drama of revenge era 1960 "Help".
"Thank you all!" Said Spencer, who wept and trembled. The film is based on the popular novel about the life of black employees in the pre-Civil Rights era South Spencer turned character actress into a star after winning the lion's share of the prices of the season. She was so touched she was to be provided at the scene of the film script writer and director, Tate Taylor, long and loud ovation.
Angelina Jolie was not a candidate, but she has always excelled, coming dangerously close to flashing the audience when she walked on stage in a black dress with a slit to the thigh. It is strange, she leaned back in a pose that is exposed as thin thighs, leaving a little imagination and draw a collective gasp from the audience.
She was there to put two Oscars. One of them was for adapted screenplay, Alexander Payne, Nat Faxon and Jim Rash for "posterity." Another went to Woody Allen. He scored his third and fourth Oscar for original screenplay for his romantic comedy "Midnight in Paris". It was his first Oscar at age 25 when he won this category in 1986, "Hannah and Her Sisters." Of course, the price is notoriously shy Allen was not present on Sunday.

For the "Artist", Louis Bource won original score, and Mark Bridges won for costume.
The night began with Billy Crystal returns as host for the ninth time after a very long absence.
Crystal has hosted since 2004 - and he should not have to spend this year. He was supposed to be Eddie Murphy. But Murphy dropped out, after the director Brett Ratner at the door. Ratner has been used for an Oscar, along with Don Mischer, but Ratner was deposed after using a gay insult.
Show Knife plays the riff from the beginning to the layout of a scene of torture, Crystal was forced to assume the role of the host. This has made it into some of the best scenes of nominated films of the year - and lock lips with George Clooney and a chance meeting with Tom Cruise. This was followed by a medley of songs and dances gently mocking all the best images of the candidates - and the impact on the exhibition itself: Nothing sharp these hard economic times, like watching a bunch of millionaires to give gold statues to each other, he said.
Only one person welcomed the biggest night in Hollywood more than a chip - Bob Hope. Hope made 18 times, so that the crystal has a way to break this record.
