Animated Feature Oscar with Anne Hathaway

After a serious Steve Carrell realizes he's actually presenting the Animated Feature Oscar with Anne Hathaway, not Best Documentary, the pair present the Best Animated Film Oscar to Brad Bird, for Ratatouille. Brad Bird mentions his guidance counselor's doubt that he could make movies helped prepare him for the movie business. A nervous Katherine Heigl - wearing red (it's the color of the night - Anne Hathaway was also in red) presents the Best Makeup Oscar to the La Vie on Rose team - Didier Lavergne, Jan Archibald; close-up of Marion Cotillard, who looks like she's about to cry.

Where are the big categories? Traditionally the Oscars throw the viewers a bone, by presenting Best Supporting Actor or Actress early. But Jon Stewart introduces the first Best Song performance - it's Amy Adams singing the Happy Working Song from Enchanted. She sounds great, but after the great scene from the movie, with all the rodents and creatures (see it here), it's a pretty spare treatment. Can it be that we yearn for some crazy Debbie Allen dance number?

Back from commercial break, Jon Stewart tells us that the Kodak Theater attendees spend commercial breaks snarking about what the viewing audience is wearing. Then it's Dwayne "Don't Call Me The Rock Anymore" Johnson presenting the Best Visual Effects Oscar to the Golden Compass crew - Michael L. Fink, Bill Westenhofer, Ben Morris, Trevor Wood - who give a short, nice speech. Go behind the scenes production teams!
