Kodak Celebrates the Primetime Emmy Awards

Congratulations Winners!

The Artist is the 81st Academy Award®-winning best picture produced on Kodak film.

In addition to the best picture, films shot on Kodak also won Oscars® in other marquee categories – including best director (Michel Hazanavicius- The Artist), best actor (Jean Dujardin-The Artist), best actress (Meryl Streep-The Iron Lady) best supporting Actress (Octavia Spencer- The Help), best original screenplay (Woody Allen-Midnight on Paris), and best adapted screenplay (Alexander Payne, Nat Faxon, Jim Rash-The Descendents), among others.

Hollywood’s Biggest Night – The Oscars®!

Kodak is honored to join in celebrating the 2012 Academy Awards®, and congratulates all of this year’s Oscar contenders. We feel privileged to share a long history with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. Since their first ceremony was held in 1929, an overwhelming majority of Oscar-winning movies were created on Kodak film. No best picture winner in the Academy Award’s 83-year history has been made without film.

We take great pride in having supported so many filmmakers with the tools they used to tell this year’s unforgettable Oscar-nominated films.

With great anticipation, we look forward to seeing all of the 2012 Oscar nominees recognized at the 84th Academy Awards on Sunday, February 26. Kudos to all the nominees on your achievements!
