strange as individuals and probably stranger if taken as a group.

:01:03.:01:08.

At just 22, Jennifer Lawrence has won Best Actress for her role in

:01:08.:01:14.

the rom-com Silver Linings Playbook. And they said the novel wasn't

:01:14.:01:21.

filmable, but Ang Lee has been named Best Director for Life of Pi.

:01:21.:01:31.
:01:31.:01:31.

Let the Skyfall # The Bond theme, crowned a fabulous

:01:31.:01:39.

year for Adele. Who has picked up best song for Skyfall. Paul ep

:01:39.:01:45.

worth, who, oh God. For believing in me all the time and my man, I

:01:45.:01:50.

love you baby. I am live at the Vanity Fair post Oscars party where

:01:51.:01:58.

I have been chatting to some of the winners and the runners up. Hello

:01:58.:02:04.

and welcome to all our Oscars coverage for 2013. It was the night

:02:04.:02:08.

Daniel Day-Lewis made history, a Bond film won an Oscar in its 50th

:02:08.:02:12.

year, and as we saw, the Best Actress winner tripped on the

:02:12.:02:16.

stairs. With me, for the next half an hour, as ever, Mark Kermode, who

:02:16.:02:22.

has been up most of the night, watching the runners and rider, we

:02:22.:02:25.

will discuss who won with Mark and who should have won. Hello to you,

:02:25.:02:31.

Mark. Let us start with Lincoln. There would have been no bigger

:02:31.:02:34.

surprise if Daniel Day-Lewis had not won. It was extraordinary, from

:02:34.:02:38.

the beginning of award season, the bookies were saying he was a dead

:02:38.:02:41.

cert for everything. The last time we were together at the baf tax,

:02:41.:02:45.

when it was snowing, so it is nice if see Hollywood not doing snow, he

:02:45.:02:49.

was going to win there it was the absolute dead cert he was going to

:02:49.:02:53.

win, bless him he still managed to look slightly taken aback when he

:02:53.:02:58.

did his speech, it was a lovely speech. He has won twice before, he

:02:58.:03:01.

is considered to be the greatest actor of his generation he was

:03:01.:03:05.

hudgeable -- hundredable, he made a terrific joke, because Meryl Streep

:03:05.:03:09.

presented the award. He said originally I was down to play

:03:09.:03:12.

Thatcher and then they realised, soy swapped parts with Meryl Streep

:03:12.:03:16.

because she was down to play Lincoln, then he continued, he said,

:03:16.:03:19.

because there is a famous story that Steven Spielberg said he had

:03:19.:03:23.

to woo Daniel Day-Lewis for longer than he wooed his wife, to play

:03:23.:03:28.

Lincoln, Daniel Day-Lewis said, it is not true. He didn't woo me, I

:03:28.:03:31.

had to persuade Steven Spielberg not to do it adds a musical. All

:03:31.:03:37.

this in a Best Actor speech. He had time to prebear because he did it

:03:37.:03:41.

graciously, he dedicated the award to his mother. It was a pretty much

:03:41.:03:45.

pitch perfect accept tan speech. Good for him and he has made

:03:45.:03:50.

history. Let us hear a little of his speech. Here is Daniel Day-

:03:50.:03:57.

Lewis. My fellow nomnee, my equal, my better, I am so proud to have

:03:57.:04:03.

been includes an one among you. -- nominee, my wife has lived with

:04:03.:04:06.

some very strange men. They were strange add individuals and

:04:06.:04:12.

probably stranger if taken as a group. Daniel Day-Lewis. Lincoln

:04:12.:04:18.

overall, Mark, as a film, it is a curious one, it is is a bit too

:04:18.:04:23.

long, it divided people. That is a very political use of the word

:04:23.:04:28.

curious, the word that? The bab ground is boring. The fact of the

:04:28.:04:33.

matter is. I was trying not to. lot of people have found it boring,

:04:33.:04:37.

is no two ways about it. I think there is an interesting story with

:04:37.:04:43.

the Tommy Lee Jones character who is the centre of of the film for me.

:04:43.:04:48.

It is undeniable that some audiences have struggled wit. The

:04:48.:04:52.

interesting thing is even the people that have found that, even

:04:52.:04:57.

the people that found that have said, yes, but Daniel Day-Lewis is

:04:57.:05:00.

perfect bg and he does make you believe he is Lincoln. We have to

:05:00.:05:04.

be honest, it is a film which some have struggled with and many have

:05:04.:05:10.

found a bit dull stkpwh. What was not dull was Argo. Six months ago,

:05:10.:05:13.

people did not think it was going to peck up best film. It is so

:05:13.:05:17.

watchable. You can see why it came through. It is is a terrific

:05:17.:05:21.

thriller. It put the academy in a difficult position. Since they have

:05:21.:05:25.

upped the best picture list from five to now, it was nine this year,

:05:25.:05:31.

there will be a problem between the best director and best film

:05:31.:05:35.

nomination, Argo, the bookies said was going to win for a long time,

:05:35.:05:40.

it has a winning streak at the baf tax, what were they going to do

:05:40.:05:43.

about the fact that Ben Affleck wasn't nominated? One of the first

:05:43.:05:48.

joefbgs the evening that the Oscars, presented by Seth the first he said

:05:48.:05:53.

this is a film that was so secret the academy don't know who directed

:05:53.:05:58.

it. It was clear the cloud hanging over the Oscars, which is they

:05:58.:06:02.

forgot to nominate baf for Best Director, when it won and baf was

:06:02.:06:06.

up there on stage, you could feel the collective o sigh of relief,

:06:06.:06:11.

everyone wanted him to be up there and it was a shame he wasn't up for

:06:11.:06:15.

Best Director. Let us head to Tim, who is in Los Angeles, at the

:06:15.:06:23.

Vanity Fair party and look, the producer of Les Miserables. Cameron

:06:23.:06:27.

Mackintosh is with me, mixed feelings stp you got three prizes.

:06:27.:06:32.

I am thrilled. Listen, it was an incredible tight race, with at

:06:32.:06:36.

least half a dozen Phipps all of which dereceived to win, the fact

:06:36.:06:41.

we are here with three awards, and to see my cast strutting their

:06:41.:06:47.

stuff and bringing the entire theatre to its feet with one day

:06:47.:06:52.

more. I couldn't be more proud. It has been an amazing journey for u

:06:52.:06:58.

because, I was thinking on the way here tonight, you know, a year a we

:06:58.:07:03.

hadn't started filming mismix, here we are at the Academy Awards,

:07:03.:07:07.

having had a marvellous run and the film being an enormous suck sex, I

:07:07.:07:12.

am a very happy bunny. Anne Hathaway won Best Supporting

:07:12.:07:16.

Actress as everyone predicted. If she hadn't won, you would have been

:07:16.:07:21.

very surprised. I would have been. The other thing is of course, in a

:07:21.:07:25.

normal year, Hugh Jackman would have won best actors but the thing

:07:25.:07:30.

to remember is never do a musical, when Daniel Day-Lewis is doing a

:07:30.:07:35.

film. So, Hugh and I decided we are going to find out from Daniel's

:07:35.:07:39.

agent when he is going to take a hl they and we will do another film

:07:39.:07:44.

stkpwh. A lot of musical numbers in the Oscar, did they work for you?

:07:44.:07:49.

You were seeing less misup there, Chicago as well? There was a great

:07:49.:07:53.

segment. I was concentrating on the segment I was involved in. That

:07:53.:08:00.

went down a treat. So, it was great to vee the audience on its feet.

:08:00.:08:07.

See. Cameron mash tosh -- Macintosh chatting about his reaction to the

:08:07.:08:17.
:08:17.:08:17.

three Oscar wins for that film. Tim, thank you. Cameron Mackintosh

:08:17.:08:21.

looking sprightly there T we talked about Daniel Day-Lewis being a shoe

:08:21.:08:28.

in. Anne Hathaway was a shoe in for Best Supporting Actress, An equal

:08:28.:08:31.

certainty. The dead certs were Daniel Day-Lewis and Anne Hathaway

:08:31.:08:35.

and Amour for best film not the the English language. As far as Anne

:08:35.:08:38.

Hathaway was concerned she was a sure enough bet they were able to

:08:38.:08:43.

make jokes about her win before she had won it. Seth MacFarlane did a

:08:43.:08:48.

long, tened sketch which hinged at one point on a gag, there is no

:08:48.:08:52.

point for waiting for supporting accuse stress we know Anne Hathaway

:08:52.:09:00.

is going to win. It was a terrific performance, the reason Les

:09:00.:09:05.

Miserables works is because they sang live on set. They could record

:09:05.:09:09.

the vocals clean. They had to add the orchestration to that which is

:09:10.:09:13.

a very complicated task, congratulations to everybody

:09:13.:09:16.

involved for doing that. Anne Hathaway has this magnificent

:09:16.:09:20.

moment in which she pretty much seings an entire song in what looks

:09:20.:09:25.

like one take, it manages to go from a whis ter to a scream, from

:09:25.:09:30.

quiet and intimate to great big proper full on performance, and it

:09:30.:09:34.

is done terrificly well, the screen I saw it in there wasn't a dry cry

:09:34.:09:39.

in the house. Some people have problems with it. Not even is a fan

:09:39.:09:47.

of musical, some think it is too long. No movie... I thought was on

:09:47.:09:51.

the shortside. She was always going to win. It was a lovely speech,

:09:51.:09:56.

just the right mixture of yes, confident but overwhelmed but no

:09:56.:10:04.

surprise there at all. Let us hear a lit of what she had to say to Tim.

:10:04.:10:10.

I didn't cry, I held I together, it was meaningful. The fact this film,

:10:10.:10:15.

I mean, its director wasn't shortlisted. It didn't win Best

:10:15.:10:22.

Picture, what did it say to people? It captured people's hearts. Think

:10:22.:10:26.

it moved people, and there is just something about the mew soisc this

:10:26.:10:31.

that opens people up, and a lot of people go on the journey. I love

:10:31.:10:36.

that, when they go, you have had your two question, we should say a

:10:36.:10:41.

word for the Brit, the Brits won the make up award for Les

:10:41.:10:47.

Miserables. No surprise if you have seen the film. A dereceived win.

:10:47.:10:50.

Best Supporting Actor. Christoph Waltz A man who is so talented and

:10:50.:10:55.

his second Oscar. Yes, and again, you know, giving great thanks to

:10:55.:11:01.

Quentin Tarantino, of course, Quentin Tarantino went on to win,

:11:01.:11:04.

the screenplay award but Christoph Waltz very grey susly said I

:11:04.:11:08.

dedicate this to award to Quentin Tarantino. Tarn Tyne know got up on

:11:08.:11:14.

stage, looking fan takesly dishevelled. His tie down here and

:11:14.:11:18.

shirt collar up. He does do that. It looked like he hadn't thought

:11:18.:11:22.

about what he looked like, which implieded he thought he might not

:11:22.:11:27.

win he did a very interesting thing, one of the themes of this year was

:11:27.:11:31.

music in the movie, they were using the jaws theme when people had

:11:31.:11:36.

spoken to long f somebody starteded speaking too long you would hear

:11:36.:11:40.

this orchestration, it would chase them off stage. Quentin Tarantino

:11:40.:11:45.

who talked down the music, they, the orchestra stopped. So, that was

:11:45.:11:51.

a small victory. Let us hear a little of wald wa -- wall waltz

:11:51.:11:58.

talking to Tim Overwhelmed. Literally. I can't grasp it yet. --

:11:58.:12:02.

Christoph Waltz. Quentin Tarantino, what did he do to make your

:12:02.:12:07.

performance award-winning? writes stuff that I can do. It is,

:12:07.:12:13.

no-one won an award of any kind without mediocre part or a bad part.

:12:13.:12:18.

It is all the part. Christoph Waltz. A real tribute to Quentin Tarantino.

:12:18.:12:24.

Tarn Tyne know returned the compliment, when he won he did say,

:12:24.:12:28.

he said in the end my movies will be remembered for the characters I

:12:28.:12:31.

created, and he said and they will be remembered because of the actors

:12:31.:12:34.

that played them and you cast a movie right and this time I got it

:12:34.:12:38.

just right. So he turned it round. He is one of those people who can

:12:38.:12:42.

sometimes seem full of himself but he turned it round into it is not

:12:42.:12:48.

about me it is about the cast. talked about supporting actor and

:12:48.:12:52.

actress, we should move on to the Best Actress for a mere 22-year-old.

:12:52.:12:56.

We are not bitter. That is nice. Jennifer Lawrence. Poor thing, that

:12:56.:13:02.

clip will be played over and over on you tube for years to come. I

:13:02.:13:06.

suspect we vit again. This is her in the film of course, Silver

:13:06.:13:11.

Linings Playbook. Bradley Cooper is in that scene. But up against

:13:11.:13:20.

Daniel Day-Lewis so not a chance. She was quite a hot traiv rit in

:13:20.:13:26.

Winter's Bone. After the BAFTAs win when Emanuelle Riva won, suddenly

:13:26.:13:30.

the bookies went maybe general fa Lawrence isn't the front runner,

:13:30.:13:34.

maybe it will be Emanuelle Riva who was the oldest nominee in the Best

:13:34.:13:38.

Actress category up against the youngest, Quvenzhane Wallis which

:13:38.:13:42.

gave, there it is, the moment for which Jennifer Lawrence will, but

:13:42.:13:47.

she fulled -- pulled it off. Having done that she got up on stage, she

:13:47.:13:51.

got a standing ovation, she said you are only standing up because I

:13:51.:13:55.

fell over. That was very well recovered. She is terrific, she was

:13:55.:14:02.

nominated before for Wynter's Bone. You talk about her being young, it

:14:02.:14:07.

was a few years ago, she is very versatile. It was interesting when

:14:07.:14:14.

you describe plain play -- plain plain, you said rom-com, yes it is

:14:14.:14:19.

comedic, it is a dark film, in the end it is a feel good movie. It has

:14:19.:14:25.

an uf lifting third act. It deals with mental illness, dysfunctional

:14:25.:14:30.

family, those subjects that people feel cynical. I thought it had a

:14:30.:14:34.

serious core, it was about something. It is is a hard film to

:14:34.:14:41.

categorise. Bradley Cooper plays a man with bipolar disorder, extreme

:14:41.:14:46.

as well. Everyone in his family is equally troubled. That is the

:14:46.:14:50.

interesting thing, the people who have mental illness and those who

:14:50.:14:56.

don't are indishable. The film presents a wide spectrum of by a

:14:56.:15:00.

yor, in a way which is sensitive and well handled. We are going to

:15:00.:15:10.
:15:10.:15:21.

go back to Tim. He has a very big Ang Lee, this is not your first

:15:21.:15:28.

Oscar. No, but this one I am really happy with. People said Life of Pi

:15:28.:15:37.

could not be film. Were you daunted? Yes. I think the hardest

:15:37.:15:42.

thing is it is an expensive movie but a philosophical book. But we

:15:42.:15:49.

did it. 3,000 people and four years later, we are here and I am so

:15:49.:15:55.

happy. The movie went really well in England. Anyway, people forgot

:15:55.:16:00.

the CGI, they thought what they were seeing was real. Was that your

:16:00.:16:09.

ultimate aim? Yes. It is best if you know CGI and music, that is

:16:09.:16:15.

everybody's goal. You beat Steven Spielberg! I don't want to say that.

:16:15.:16:19.

Congratulations, thank you for talking to us. I have so much

:16:19.:16:29.

admiration for his work. Ang Lee, Best Director for Life of Pi.

:16:29.:16:34.

I love Ang Lee, he comes across as a decent and self-effacing. And it

:16:34.:16:37.

was a novel which won the Booker Prize and anyone who read it said,

:16:37.:16:42.

you cannot possibly film it. Heaviley pulled it off.

:16:42.:16:48.

extraordinary thing is that what he has done with Life of Pi, as you

:16:48.:16:53.

know, if I have to watch a 3D film, it will be Life of Pi. The visual

:16:53.:16:59.

effects are extraordinary. What is interesting this year about angry

:16:59.:17:04.

winning is the question of Ben Affleck's admission. I think even

:17:04.:17:08.

if Ben Affleck had been nominated for best director, Ang Lee would

:17:08.:17:12.

still have won. I think life of pie is brilliantly directed. Whether

:17:12.:17:18.

you think it is the Best Film or not, the direction is extraordinary.

:17:18.:17:25.

Marshalling of these visual effects which are very complicated, he said

:17:25.:17:30.

his visual director was a gift from the movie got. Really holding a

:17:30.:17:35.

movie together. That is all tribute to Ang Lee's direction, it is a

:17:35.:17:39.

brilliantly directed from. I think Ben Affleck should have been

:17:39.:17:44.

nominated for Best Director but I still think Ang Lee would have won.

:17:44.:17:49.

A teenager when he made that film and by definition, a lot of it is

:17:49.:17:54.

acting against a green screen. he did not go to audition. He went

:17:54.:18:00.

to accompany his brother and then he ended up doing it. He appeared

:18:00.:18:06.

to arrive from nothing and he looks so confident and halls the camera

:18:06.:18:11.

so much. EU think, is that they lead his first feature? -- you

:18:11.:18:19.

think. He is completely natural. quick word about the Best Film and

:18:19.:18:27.

a foreign-language. A more. There are films that I laugh, but there

:18:27.:18:33.

was no question in my mind. The question was whether it had gone to

:18:33.:18:40.

the other categories. Again, I think everyone expects it to win.

:18:40.:18:45.

It is a portrait of love in all age and what love really means. When it

:18:45.:18:53.

first played, I think it was at the Cannes Film Festival,. People

:18:53.:18:56.

thought the title was ironic because Michael Hannah could not

:18:56.:19:02.

have made a film about love. Oscars day was Emmanuelle Riva applause

:19:02.:19:07.

mac 86th birthday. And Jennifer Lawrence Gracias they remembered to

:19:07.:19:14.

say happy birthday to for -- to her. A lot of people remembered to thank

:19:14.:19:24.

their nominees by name. It does not always happen but a lot of them did.

:19:24.:19:32.

Let's talk about James Bond. It is its 50th year. A real testament,

:19:32.:19:37.

lots of performances, we saw Shirley Bassey and Adele. Can we

:19:37.:19:41.

hear a little but from Adele? What a remarkable year that young women

:19:41.:19:47.

from Hackney has had. Thank you so much. This is amazing. I would like

:19:47.:19:55.

to thank Barbara broccoli and Michael Wilson. Sony pictures, MGM,

:19:55.:20:05.
:20:05.:20:05.

Paul Acworth. -- Paul Epworth. And my man, I Love You, Baby! That is a

:20:06.:20:11.

proper acceptance speech. Complete the heartfelt. It was terrific, she

:20:11.:20:14.

seemed to be that so moved. When she performed the theme from

:20:15.:20:19.

Skyfall, she had to go on after Shirley Bassey, which is not the

:20:19.:20:22.

easiest thing. But she was very confident. It was a great

:20:22.:20:29.

performance. The moment had arrived. It is interesting, I still feel

:20:29.:20:33.

significantly that it should be nominated for Best Director. It did

:20:33.:20:40.

very very well. Bond is still fighting. It has a history of not

:20:40.:20:44.

being taken seriously by the academy. It came together in the

:20:44.:20:49.

50th year and Skyfall was in many people's opinion, the best Bond

:20:49.:20:54.

movie so far. Everyone wanted it to win. You could feel people thinking,

:20:54.:21:02.

it needs to win awards. It also won awards for sound Editing. It was an

:21:03.:21:07.

interesting thing. And it was announced that there was a tie with

:21:07.:21:11.

Zero Dark Thirty, there was a kind of audible intake of breath. It

:21:11.:21:14.

turns out there have been several times during the course of the

:21:14.:21:23.

Academy Awards. Katharine Hepburn and Barbra Streisand tying in 1969.

:21:23.:21:27.

It does not happen that often. But what used to happen was, in the

:21:27.:21:32.

early days of the Oscars, if the voting was within three votes, it

:21:32.:21:36.

would be registered as a tide. Nowadays, it has to be the exact

:21:36.:21:40.

same number of votes. So it is not completely unprecedented. Although

:21:41.:21:44.

it caught everyone of guard. quick thought about Zero Dark

:21:44.:21:49.

Thirty. A few months ago, there was a degree of momentum, a lot of talk

:21:49.:21:54.

about Jessica Chastain. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow who was the first,

:21:55.:22:00.

the only woman ever to win the best director Oscar. Very watchable. I

:22:00.:22:05.

enjoyed it hugely. But it went off the radar. What is interesting is,

:22:05.:22:09.

it did not go of the reader, it was brought on to the reader with a

:22:09.:22:13.

really bad, negative press campaign. Every year there is something like

:22:13.:22:20.

that. Suddenly, there are all these articles written about somehow, it

:22:20.:22:23.

justified or endorsed or glorified torture. It is interesting, around

:22:23.:22:29.

the time of the Oscars, it only takes little with of an allegation

:22:29.:22:34.

to really damage a movie's chances. At one point, people thought this

:22:34.:22:40.

was good to be a big contender. It is significant that it has not done,

:22:41.:22:45.

it has not been a winner. I am sure part of that is the negative press

:22:45.:22:50.

surrounding it. In my opinion it is completely unfair. I do not think

:22:50.:22:54.

the movie echoes those views expressed. But Oscar campaigning is

:22:55.:23:00.

a dirty business. You just have to look back at the history, who is

:23:00.:23:06.

going to call who first? It is a mud fight. A quick final thought

:23:06.:23:11.

about the host, Seth MacFarlane. I have been reading mixed results.

:23:11.:23:15.

Funnily enough, it was mixed in the genuine sense. What he did at the

:23:15.:23:18.

beginning was he was trying to get a balance between being outrageous

:23:18.:23:24.

and being an Oscar post. So he had a conceit at the beginning was that

:23:24.:23:29.

William Shatner appears from the future to tell him... No, stay with

:23:29.:23:33.

me! To tell him he has messed-up the Oscars. He said, here is how

:23:33.:23:38.

you did it. They showed a song about leading actresses and whether

:23:38.:23:42.

or not they can be seen naked in movies. Not funny in the slightest.

:23:42.:23:50.

Then at the end, he says, it is a good job we did not make that joke!

:23:50.:23:55.

All the way through it, there was an awkward balance between, I

:23:55.:24:01.

should or I should not be saying this. For me, it hit the right time.

:24:01.:24:05.

Much more to come boss of let's remind ourselves of some of the

:24:05.:24:15.
:24:15.:24:21.

Fantastic. They were all very deserving. It was astonishing.

:24:21.:24:31.
:24:31.:24:44.

great night, I enjoyed it. I feel I want to thank Paul Acworth. Oh,

:24:44.:24:54.
:24:54.:24:56.

God! For believing in me all the time. I was on the stage. I loved

:24:56.:25:06.
:25:06.:25:13.

You guys are just standing up because I fell! But thank you.

:25:13.:25:23.
