81st Oscar's Academy Awards

81st Oscar's Academy Awards

"Int. Kodak Theatre. Night.

Kodak Theatre is decorated with blue lace curtains of Swarovski-crystals while the musicians on stage provided the grand music in the background to honour this year's celebration of movies. It is a daunting experience for any person who walks along the aisle leading to the stage, for one is walking among many famous directors, producers and actors.

HUGH JACKMAN walks across the stage and greeted warmly:

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the 81st Oscars Academy Awards!"

Actually I don't know exactly how you write a script. I was just following the examples that the show had featured some of the scripts when Tina Fey and Steve Martin were handing out the Screenplay awards.

First of all, congratulations to all the nominees and winners. The only shocked I have was Sean Penn winning over Mickey Rourke for Best Actor award. And I thought Mickey Rourke was going to win because I've seen him in the trailer. He was very convincing in his role.

Secondly, mad props to the show. This has been one of the enjoyous Academy Awards I have ever watched. Hugh Jackman, who isn't a comedian, is a very charming and intimate host to the nominees. His opening scene was entertaining and full of wit. He does bring something different to the Oscar's. Previous hosts were boring the hell out of me and this year's host had proven he has the chops to stir up the crowds without any jokes or slapstick humour.

Slumdog Millionaire sweeps the Oscar's with 8 wins, including Best Picture and Best Director for Danny Boyle. Unfortunately, the most-nominated The Curious Case of Benjamin Button with 13 nominations walks away with only 3 wins in hand. Technical awards to be exact...Yeah, I know..How sad is that?..

Int. Kodak Theatre. Very late at night.

Producer CHRISTIAN COLSON makes his way nervously to the stage. DANNY BOYLE signals to the entire cast of Slumdog Millionaire present at the Oscar's to join him on stage to celebrate their labour of love winning the most prestigious award at the ceremony: Best Picture Award.

CHRISTIAN COLSON
"Thank you so much to the Academy. As you can see, our film was a collaboration between hundreds of people. I'm so happy that so many of them could be with us here tonight to share this moment. Together, we've been on an extraordinary, an extraordinary journey. When we started out, we had no stars, we had no power or muscle. We didn't have enough money, really, to do what we wanted to do. But what we had was a script that inspired mad love in everyone who read it. We had a genius for a director. We had a cast and a crew who were unwavering in their commitment and whose talents are up on the screen for all of you to see. We had partners in Film4, in Celador, in Pathé and Fox Searchlight, who had the courage to support us. And we had a shared love for the extraordinary city of Mumbai, where we made the movie. Most of all, we had passion and we had belief, and our film shows that if you have those two things, truly anything is possible. I want to thank, on a personal note, my mum and my dad for all their love and support over the years. I want to thank my girl, Saskia Mulder, who is my partner in crime and the light in my life. And I want to thank all of you very much indeed. Thank you."

HUGH JACKMAN comes on stage, congratulating winners and nominees and bidding the audience goodbye.

The speech is very real, ok? I didn't made that up.

My sisters are probably not going to watch Slumdog Millionaire..Go figure..Haha!
