Leto passed around his Oscar to members of the press backstage, urging them to “fondle” it. The long-haired actor, who has devoted himself in recent years to his rock band 30 Seconds to Mars, gravely vowed: “I will revel tonight.”
Cate Blanchett took best actress for her fallen socialite in Woody Allen's “Blue Jasmine” (藍色茉莉), her second Oscar. Accepting the award, she challenged Hollywood not to think of films starring women as “niche experiences”: “The world is round, people!” she declared to hearty applause.
Draped in Nairobi blue, Lupita Nyong'o — the Cinderella of the awards season — won best supporting actress for her indelible impression as the tortured slave Patsey. It's the feature film debut for the 31-year-old actress.
“It doesn't escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else's, and so I want to salute the spirit of Patsy for her guidance,” said Nyong'o. She also thanked director Steve McQueen: “I'm certain that the dead are standing about you and they are watching and they are grateful, and so am I.”
John Ridley won best adapted screenplay for “12 Years a Slave,” shifting praise to Northup: “Those are his words. That is his life.” Spike Jonze took best original screenplay for his futuristic romance “Her” (雲端情人), the category Russell had the best chance of winning.
Though the ceremony lacked a big opening number, it had a steady musical beat to it. To a standing ovation, Bono and U2 played an acoustic version of “Ordinary Love,” from “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom” (曼德拉：漫漫自由路). Pharrell Williams had Streep and Leonardo DiCaprio dancing in the aisles with “Happy” from “Despicable Me 2” (神偷奶爸2).
Pink was cheered for her rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” part of a 75th anniversary tribute to “The Wizard of Oz” (綠野仙蹤). And Bette Midler sang — what else? — “Wind Beneath My Wing” for the in memoriam segment — an especially heartfelt one, considering the deaths of Philip Seymour Hoffman, Harold Ramis, James Gandolfini and others.
