The Academy Awards is the annual film industry award show held by the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The Academy Award, informally known as the Oscar, is a golden knight who stands on a reel of film with five spokes, representing the original branches of the Academy; Actors, Writers, Directors, Producers, and Technicians. The first of these awards were presented in 1929, to a private brunch at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, with an audience of 270 people. Since then, the award presentation has become one of the biggest and most prominent award ceremonies in the world, and is televised live to more than 200 countries. Honoring people who work in all facets of film, the awards include categories like Best Actor/Actress in a Leading Role, Best Cinematography, Best Director, Best Original Score, Best Film Editing, and the coveted Best Picture. Tune in as Hollywood's best get dolled up and receive honors for their year's work on The Academy Awards.MORE
