Looking for this year's Oscar winners list / 2009 Academy Awards winners? We have it right here, the names of the lucky actors, actresses, directors, writes, producers and all of the other recipients of the most prestigious, most coveted award in film. The lucky individual who will forever be known as Oscar winners.

The 2009 Oscar Awards will be presented less than a week from now and the excitement is already fever-pitch. News reports on television and in print are already making their own predictions. Clips of previous Oscar ceremonies have started to be
featured on YouTube drumming up more interest in this year's Academy Awards. Who will this year's Oscar winners be?

With the momentum Slumdog Millionaire has built up over the past month, it's almost a sure bet that it will take home the best picture prize. Awards in the Golden Globes, SAG, BAFTA and various guild ceremonies have made the film the odd-on favorite not only in the best picture category but in the director's category as well. it will be interesting to see if this momentum will also have an effect in the other categories it is nominated in.

In the acting categories, I think it will be a battle between Meryl Streep and Kate Winslet for the Best Actress prize, and Sean Penn and Mickey Rourke for the Best Actor award. With past victories in other awards ceremonies, it is almost certain that Heath Ledger will receive a posthumous Best Supporting Actor nod. The supporting actress category seems to be open though. Let's wait and see who the Academy chooses.

Find out who this year's Oscar winners are when they are announced on Sunday. This page will have the live results for you so check back regularly.
