TOM WILKINSON JOHN ADAMS

ok, there were a few surprises after all. I certainly didn't expect Colin Farrell, Gabriel Byrne, or Anna Paquin to win. I'm definitely more curious to see all the projects they won for.

Slumdog Millionaire won four awards and will most likely win handily at the Oscars as well. It's certainly deserved as it is a beautiful film.

Congrats to all the winners.

Edit: pardon my error In Bruges did NOT win best picture. My mistake has been corrected. Thanks Amy!!
