Oscars 2012: See the Full List of Winners

There were some milestones to the 2012 Oscars telecast: Christopher Plummer became the oldest actor ever to win an Oscar. Meryl Streep finally won another award to make up for her 17 nominations and one win. "The Artist" became the first silent film to win an Oscar in many decades.

But other than that, things went mostly as expected: "Hugo" won a bunch of technical awards, the acting awards went to the favorites (except for Meryl's "steal"), and the writing awards went where everyone knew they would.
