Movie award season is in full swing. Producers and critics’ groups have weighed in and the first of the big award shows, the Golden Globes, has already taken place. Still to come—the Screen Actors’ Guild (SAG) awards on January 29, the Independent Spirit Awards on February 25, and, of course, the Oscars on February 26.
The Oscars, for which nominations were just announced (http://bit.ly/A6hl3a), always get the most attention. And why not? This is the 84th year for the ceremony. Given the show’s longevity, it seems fitting that two of the most nominated films this year—Hugo and The Artist—celebrate the long history of film.
To get ready for the big ceremony, we’ve compiled some links to fill you in on all things Oscar:
• Once the nominations are announced, there is always lots of talk about who got snubbed. Entertainment Weekly (http://bit.ly/AaV9tv) was one of the first with a list of who did not make the cut, but should have (in their opinion). Eonline also shared their list of surprises and snubs on the day nominations were announced. (http://eonli.ne/xKu5FY)

• There are lots of sites that promise a look at the best and worst Oscar dresses ever, including Vogue (http://bit.ly/zjFj6i), Time (http://ti.me/AEOS47), and Marie Claire (http://bit.ly/A36w0g).
• And one of our favourites...red carpet hairstyles! Here are Allure magazine’s best Oscar hairstyles of the past decade (http://on.allure.com/AmZkap) and Harper’s Bazaar’s iconic hair and beauty moments (http://bit.ly/ACWUZM).
Enjoy the show!
