The 78th Academy Awards

The 78th Academy Awards:

The 78th Academy Awards ceremony, took place on March 5, 2006, at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles. The ceremony was scheduled one week later than usual to avoid conflicting with the 2006 Winter Olympics.Actor Jon Stewart hosted the show for the first time. Stewart expressed that he was honored to be selected , "Although, as an avid watcher of the Oscars, I can't help but be a little disappointed with the choice. It appears to be another sad attempt to smoke out Billy Crystal." Referring to some negative comments of the previous gala. Anyway, the ceremony was a huge one. Always full of magic, laughter and of course elegance and talent.
