Daniel Day-Lewis and Tilda Swinton swept Britain to Oscar glory.

Day-Lewis, 50, won his second best actor Academy Award for his towering performance as a ruthless, malevolent oilman in There Will Be Blood.

Swinton, 47, was named best supporting actress for her role as a ruthless corporate lawyer in the George Clooney movie Michael Clayton.

French actress Marion Cotillard was another star of the Hollywood ceremony when she was announced as best actress for her role as singer Edith Piaf in the biopic La Vie en Rose.

The 32-year-old beat Julie Christie to the title for a second time, after doing the same thing to the British veteran at the Baftas.

The biggest film of the night was No Country for Old Men, the Coen brothers' violent neo-western.

It won four of its eight nominations, including best picture - beating British film Atonement - and best director.

It also took the prize for best supporting actor for Spanish actor Javier Bardem, and adapted screenplay.

London-born Swinton provided one of the most amusing speeches of the ceremony when she thanked her agent, but not in the usual fashion, saying as she held up her statuette: "I have an American agent who is the spitting image of this. Really, truly, the same shaped head and it has to be said the buttocks.

"I'm going to give this to him because there's no way I'd be in America, even on a plane, if it wasn't for him."

Because of the writes strike they never had enough material for the cermony so had to have sh*teloads of bloody videos. John Stewerts few bits were brilliant as usual and his couple of comments off the script were brilliant.
