The world’s most prestigious film awards, the Oscars, took place on March 8, 2010. The 82nd annual Academy Awards ceremony featured a number of innovations, such as the Best Picture category including 10 nominees, instead of the traditional five. Nominees had to prepare two speeches each lasting 45 seconds in case they won. And the show was hosted not by one but by two actors - Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin.
