Oscar fever also known as Academy Awards is hosted annually with big and small names getting together to witness this spectacular event. Every year the Oscar events are held in United States which takes nearly four hours for the ceremony to end.
The first Academy Award was held in the year 1929 on May 16 Thursday, at the Hotel Roosevelt in Hollywood. This was held to honor outstanding film achievements of 1927 and 1928; this ceremony was hosted by actor Douglas Fairbanks and director William C. deMille.
The history of Academy Awards dates back to 1929 at a private brunch at the Hotel Roosevelt in Hollywood with small number audiences of around 270. The first Oscar Awards was aired first in the radio and then it was broadcasted in the TV after 1953.
The results were declared by the newspaper for publication at 11 p.m. on the night of the awards. This was carried on until Los Angeles Times announced the winners before even the award ceremony could begin. Since 1941 the Academy ceremony has sealed the envelope to reveal the name of the winners only during presentation. The awards that were held on 2002 and the following years are organized in the Kodak Theatre.
The 31st Academy Awards Presentations was held in Pantages Theater, Hollywood in the year1959. The 81st Academy Awards Presentations was held in Hollywood and Highland which was organized in Hollywood in the year 2009.
Academy Award has generated huge number of applause from all over the globe. Along with other categories Best Foreign Language Film is also included in the award ceremony to inaugurate and award films made from other nations.
They were other records that were witnessed by the audiences during the Academy ceremony. First of all the most number of wins were bagged by "Ben-Hur" which won 11 Academy Awards in the year 1959. The other that followed the suite was "Titanic" in 1997 and "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Kings" which also won 11 Oscar awards in the year 2003.
"Titanic" and "All About Eve" received 14 nominations but "Titanic" bagged with the majority of awards that year. Not only this "Dr Stranger Love or: How I Learned to stop Worrying and Love to Bomb" (1965) which was the longest ever name for Best picture nominations and "Z" (1970) was the shortest name to be announced at the ceremony.
"The Turning Point" 1977 and "The Color Purple" in 1985 received 11 nominations but failed to win a single award. Not only this "Walt Disney" was nominated for 64 awards and won 26 of them and the first win came in the year 1932.
The Academy Awards is not only meant for male directors but they are other female nominations for this category. They were Lina Wertmuler for 1976's "Seven Beauties"; Jane Campion for 1993 "The Piano", Sofia Coppola for 2003's "Lost in Translation" and Kathryn Bigelow for 2009 "The Hurt Lockeran" two other African-Americans John Singleton for "Boyz n the Hood" 1991 and Lee Daniels for "Precious" in 2009 failed to win the award in this category.
The 82nd Academy Awards, honoring the best in film for 2009, will be held on Sunday, March 7, 2010, at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, with actors Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin hosting the ceremony. Much of expectation is from James Cameron maestro "Avatar" which has broken all the box-office records.
2028 will be seeing the centenary of the Academy Awards in the world of entertainment and we have to wait and watch for the movies that have won in this year. Will this year create another milestone or will it be the end of the Oscar? For further information on Entertainment log on to http://www.jallsmedia.com.
