OSCARS 2013 LIVE BLOG: And the winners are... Christoph Waltz sees off Robert De Niro and Tommy Lee Jones to bag Best Supporting Actor

Posted on 6:29 PM by dvdsvdsdv

The 85th Academy Award winners have been chosen, the red carpet has been brightened by a cacophony of colourful gowns and the golden Oscar statues are polished and ready to go.
So with the great, good and exquisitely preened of Hollywood filed into the Dolby theatre it's time for dreams to made... or broken.
The first award of the night brought forth a distinguished quintet of nominees all vying for the Best Supporting Actor Award.

It doesn't get much better than Tommy Lee Jones, Robert De Niro, Alan Arkin, Phillip Seymour Hoffman but the gong went to Tarantino's darling, Christoph Waltz for Quentin's Django Unchained.
Ang Lee's sumptuous Life of Pi was them recognised for cinematography and visual effects, and Disney's Brave awarded the laurels for Best Animated Feature Film... Paperman got the nod for Short Animation.
The atmosphere is always tense inside the strangely ordinary theatre on the seedy end of Hollywood Boulevard at this award show of award shows, and the fact that all alcohol is banned during the ceremony - unlike the Golden Globes - only adds to the jagged sense of anticipation in the stuffy air.
Proud moment: Waltz starred in Tarantino's last movie, Inglorious Bastards, but he's been recoginsed for Django... and the director looked delighted

Good sport: Tommy Lee Jones took losing to Waltz well, and was cheerier than he appeared to be at the Golden Globes

Preened and styled to within an inch of their lives, the stars have undergone weeks of strenuous preparation for tonight's event.
They've starved themselves, stood starkers for the spray-tan, had the Hollywood smile teeth touched up, the Botox injected and brutal facials that knock their cheekbones into tip top shape; and that's just the men.

Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane's stewardship went some way to combating the inescapable stress of a night that makes and breaks careers like no other but as the roll call of winners (and therefore even more losers) got underway on Hollywood's biggest night of the year... there were plenty of rigid smiles and disappointed eyes.
Argo headed into Sunday's Oscars as almost everyone's favourite for best picture, but movie behemoth Steven Spielberg's Lincoln had a dozen nominations under its historical accurate belt - the most of any movie on the night.
But Ben Affleck's 1970s Iran hostage drama and Spielberg's historical epic still have competition from a few dark horses.
Argo f*** yourself? Ben Affleck's been snubbed in the director category but Argo is tipped to sweep the rest of the board

Going for gold: Spielberg's Lincoln has twelve nominations and even if Argo steals Best Picture, Daniel Day-Lewis is almost certain to walk away with Best Actor

There will also be a brace of musical numbers - including efforts from Barbra Streisand, Adele and Shirley Bassey.
Affleck’s Argo has won most of the big awards in the run up on to the big night; including the Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Picture which is thought to be the clearest indicator of Oscar success.
The critically acclaimed movie - which was also a massive box office hit - also walked away with the Producers Guild of America, the Writers Guild of America and the Directors Guild of America, which gave Affleck its top prize for directing the film.
But Affleck won't be picking up the directing trophy as he wasn't nominated, meaning that if Argo does collect best picture - it will be the first time a film wins without its director being nominated since 1989's Driving Miss Daisy, he also produced the film with George Clooney and Grant Heslov.

But in terms of nominations, Spielberg's biography of the 16th American President is still the favourite.
This years films have been more popular than the Academy is used to, six of the nine nominees have grossed more than $100 million the US and they're hoping that they can draw in a younger audience with the hit movies, and the edgy hosting fulcrum that is MacFarlane.
Daniel Day-Lewis is expected to be named lead actor for his starring role in Lincoln, while Anne Hathaway's turn as Fantine in Les Miserables is thought to be a given for the supporting actress trophy.
The best actress race is seen as a contest between Jennifer Lawrence for Silver Linings Playbook and Emmanuelle Riva in Amour.
And the favourites for supporting actor are Robert De Niro for Silver Linings Playbook and Tommy Lee Jones for Lincoln.
