And the Oscar goes to...

BEST ACTRESS: Julianne Moore finally won her first Oscar in the best actress category for her poignant portrayal of a mother and academic struggling with early-onset Alzheimer's disease in "Still Alice". She was the clear frontrunner in the category where her competitors included Marion Cotillard, Felicity Jones, Rosamund Pike and Reese Witherspoon. Moore, 54, too threw light on the neurodegenerative disease that leads to memory loss, in her acceptance speech. "People say that an Oscar award leads to living five years younger and I am happy that I won the award because my husband is younger to me...," an emotional Moore said in her speech.
