Natalie Portman at the 83rd Academy Awards show.It’s an amazing night here backstage at the Oscars as the best in the film industry gather inside the Kodak Theater to celebrate the 83rd annual Academy Awards.

This is expected to be one of the most exciting shows so far, with Anne Hathaway and James Franco hosting the big event. The list of presenters is just as impressive as the list of nominees—everyone from Oprah and Sandra Bullock to Javier Bardem and Tom Hanks. But the night truly belongs to the nominees whose talent has brought us an exceptional movie year: Colin Firth (The King's Speech), Natalie Portman (Black Swan), Melissa Leo (The Fighter), Christian Bale (The Fighter), and the list goes on and on. And the most exciting part?   We'll be back here with the winners! We’ll be reporting live from the press room, and anything goes.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show and our inside take on the experience...
