The long wait is finally over, the winners of the 81st Academy Awards were already revealed. I was actually surprised by the result. I was expecting “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” to bag most of the awards...I guessed wrong. “Slumdog Millionaire” is the biggest winner. What is “Slumdog Millionaire”? I didn’t even know such movie existed. Well, probably, this movie is indeed a good one, coz if not; this movie won’t be winning Best Picture and Best Director. Also, I feel very happy because Heath Ledger got the posthumous award for Best Supporting Actor...another point to his legacy...As I’ve mentioned on my previous blog....I soo love Heath and I’ll forever be proud of that.
