Historic night in Hollywood
Bigelow reigns supreme at Oscars
Published: 09/03/2010
KATHRYN Bigelow’s stunning success in the Oscars has all the makings of a blockbuster Hollywood movie in its own right. The little-known woman director’s low-budget film went head-to-head on Sunday with the no-expense-spared movie directed by her famous ex-husband and clinched a host of awards, including the coveted best film and best director accolades.
It is an amazing story, even in the seen-it-all world that is Hollywood. If, deep down, Ms Bigelow was after revenge following the break-up of her marriage, she got it in the best way possible.
