Pete Hammond at Deadline.com has discovered what the first two awards will be at the Oscars this Sunday:
I’ve learned 2-time Oscar winner and Academy favorite Tom Hanks will be the first presenter and name winners in both the Art Direction and Cinematography categories right off the bat. Best Picture frontrunner The King’s Speech is up for both, so the world will quickly get an idea whether that Best Picture nominee is able to mount a sweep right in the first few minutes of Sunday’s Oscar show.
If The King’s Speech takes both awards, then hold on to your butt’s… it’s going to be a long night for the royal drama.
