In With A Crash

Shoo-in choice Brokeback Mountain was pipped to the post tonight, losing out on Best Film to Paul Haggis' Crash, unarguably the dark horse of the Best Picture category. Ang Lee did scoop Best Director though, bringing the film's total to three and tying it tally-wise with Crash,** King Kong** and Memoirs of a Geisha.

George Clooney may not have taken Best Director for **Good Night, And Good Luck **but he didn't leave empty-handed, scooping Best Supporting Actor for Syriana. Rachel Weiss walked away with Best Supporting Actress for The Constant Gardener while Best Actor and Actress were utter no-brainers, gonig to Phillip Seymour Hoffman and Reese Witherspoon.

Oh and three cheers for Wallace and Gromit for taking Best Animated Film.
