Greek-American director, writer and producer Alexander Payne won an Oscar for “The Descendants” for Best Adapted Screenplay.
An interesting moment on the carpet was when Sacha Baron Cohen, dressed up as “The Dictator”, emptied a vase with powder (supposedly Kim Jong Il’s ashes) on Ryan Seacrest’s tuxedo. Cohen said it was an accident, but Seacrest didn’t look happy.
