Critics Choice Awards

Avatar took 6 awards, Inglourious Basterds won 3, The Hurt Locker was named Best Picture of the year but certainly the highlight was this moment when Sandra Bullock stole a kiss from Hollywood's most respected actress Meryl Streep as they both tied for the Best Actress award, respectively for The Blind Side and Julie & Julia. Kathryn Bigelow also received the Best Director award, thanking Mark Boal and all the men and women who are currently and have served their country overseas. Boal however did not win the Original Screenplay award, as that was won by Quentin Tarantino for Inglourious Basterds. The rest of the winners are listed below and I hope you are all looking forward to tomorrow's Golden Globes. Unfortunately I won't be able to report them live but the awards will be listed as soon as the ceremony's finished.
