Iran hostage drama "Argo" won the Best Film award, the top prize at
the Oscars 2013, movie industry's most coveted awards, beating rival
"Lincoln"
The thriller, which is based on a true story, recounts a CIA mission to rescue six American diplomats from Iran after the 1979 Islamic Revolution, under the cover of making a fake Hollywood film.
"Argo" was voted Best Film on Sunday after winning a slew of
other Hollywood awards despite its director, Ben Affleck, being left off
the Academy Award directing shortlist.
Taiwanese-American Ang Lee beat master directors like Steven Spielberg and Michael Haneke to take home the best director Oscar for "Life of Pi", his visually stunning 3D tale of an Indian boy adrift in the ocean for months with a Bengal tiger.
In a unique race, 22-year-old Jennifer Lawrence defeated the oldest and youngest Oscar nominees to take home the Best Actress Oscar for her role of a recovering sex addict in David O Russell's 'Silver Linings Playbook'.
Daniel Day-Lewis has won the Academy Award for best actor for his exactingly authentic performance as President Abraham Lincoln in Steven Spielberg's historical drama.
