LOS ANGELES (AP) – Sandra Bullock and Jeff Bridges have won the lead-acting honors at the Academy Awards.
Bullock won for her role as a wealthy woman who takes in a homeless future NFL star in "The Blind Side." Bridges won best-actor for his turn as a boozy country singer trying to clean up his act in "Crazy Heart."
The Oscar marks a career peak for Bridges, a beloved Hollywood veteran who had been nominated four times in the previous 38 years without winning.
