The Oscars 2014: List of 86th Academy Awards Winners: Photo

The 86th Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), honored the actors, technical achievements, and films of 2013 and took place on March 2, 2014, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles. During the ceremony, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences presented awards in 24 categories.  The ceremony was scheduled one week later than usual to avoid conflict with the broadcast of the 2014 Winter Olympics, as was the case in 2006 and 2010. Televised in the United States by ABC, the ceremony was produced by Neil Meron and Craig Zadan, and directed by Hamish Hamilton. Television personality Ellen DeGeneres hosted the show for the second time, after hosting the 79th ceremony in 2007. With 43.74 million viewers, this was the most watched Oscar ceremony since 2000.
