Crash Lands Shock Oscar
Triumph
Crash
was the shock winner at the 78th Academy Awards, winning
best film ahead of favourite Brokeback Mountain.
The filmmakers paid
tribute to fellow nominees for creating one of the "most
maverick, breathtaking" years in films.
Ang Lee won best director
for Brokeback Mountain, but ultimately the film only won
three of its eight nominations.
Actress Reese Witherspoon
and Philip Seymour Hoffman shared the acting honours for
roles in Walk
The Line and
Capote
respectively.
The 29-year-old
Witherspoon, who won for her role as June Carter Cash,
thanked her co-star Joaquin Phoenix: "I feel so lucky to
have gone on this journey with you."
