 =**And the Oscar goes to ... **=



Every year, viewers, fans, and the stars themselves are anxious to find out who will win in each category. Sometimes the winners are easily predicted, but usually it is difficult to tell who will take home the Oscar. What makes the Oscars such an exciting and inspiring event is that there is always the 'underdog' winners and the surprise winners. Last year, the film Slumdog Millionaire was an 'underdog' but, the film and everyone involved proved worthy because they were awarded more than one Oscar!
