Ladies dazzle Oscar red carpet as history awaitsLadies dazzle Oscar red carpet as history awaitsOscar's red carpet swung into fashion action hatson Sunday ahead of the Academy Awards where several women including director Kathryn Bigelow and Sandra Bullock are favored to claim their share of Hollywood glory.

Vera Farmiga, nominated for best supporting actress playing a traveling businesswoman in "Up In the Air" wore a ruby red strapless gown from Marchesa with a dramatic ruffle.

Recording star Mariah Carey, who has a role in best film nominee "Precious: Based on the Novel 'Push' by Sapphire," showed off a plunging neckline and much leg in her navy gown, joking that she feared a breeze might raise the bottom and make her look like the iconic photograph of Marilyn Monroe.

"I love Marilyn but I was concerned about a Marilyn moment," she joked with reporters on the red carpet, all the while tinkering with the fabric that fluttered at her leg.

If Bullock fails on Oscar night,#x pundits say the likely best actress is veteran Meryl Streep as trailblazing chef Julia Child in the culinary comedy "Julie & Julia."

If she takes the Academy Award in her record 16th nomination, Streep will be just one victory short of legendary Katharine Hepburn, who had four Oscars in her lifetime, more than any man or woman.

BEST FILM DRAMA

Comedian Mo'Nique has claimed almost every supporting actress honorhatsin sight for her dramatic turn as an abusive mother in "Precious: Based On the Novel 'Push' By Sapphire," and she is favored at the Oscars, too.

Jeff Bridges seems to be a lock for best actor as a drunken singer in "Crazy Heart" and Christoph Waltz is favored for supporting actor as a menacing Nazi in "Inglourious Basterds." Both have claimed numerous other awards for their work.

Yet, even with the acting categories all but sewn up,Mold, Oscar watchers say some drama remains in the top race for best film.

As Hollywood's award season has played out since December, Bigelow and her reality-fueled "Hurt Locker" have trumped Cameron and his effects-filled "Avatar" at nearly every event.

But in the past two weeks, "Hurt Locker" began seeing some unsavory headlines#x after producer Nicolas Chartier was caught campaigning for best film by disparaging "Avatar," causing the Academy to banish him from Sunday's ceremony.

At private Hollywood parties, there have been whispers that the 5,800 Oscar voters may prefer "Avatar" with its $2.5 billion at global box offices, compared to about $20 million for "Hurt Locker."

"We thought we were going to make some money but not nearly as much as we did," Cameron said on the red carpet.

As important, some Oscar watchers think a preferential voting system hatsand 10 best film nominees for the first time since 1943, could cause the front-runners to split the vote and allow "Inglourious Basterds" or "Precious" to claim the award.相关的主题文章：
