Titanic's Oscar Night

Titanic won:

Oscars galore:

Titanic director James Cameron and his actress wife Linda Hamilton were dressed to kill -- Hamilton in a sky-blue Pamela Dennis creation, Cameron in a tux by Valentino.

Oscar #5-Winslet arrivesKate Winslet

Titanic star Kate Winslet, in an emerald green Alexander McQueen for Givenchy, chose the designer specifically, "because he's a funky designer who knows how to dress women." A special bonus: the emerald hue matched her eyes: "Somebody just told me [that], but I didn't realize it when I picked it."

Oscar #6-Cameron Backstage holding Oscars

It was hardly sink or swim for the Titanic party tossed by Paramount and 20th Century Fox. Under a white tent erected in a huge parking lot in Beverly Hills, "survivors" of the epic that swept the night's awards began celebrating at 6:30 and didn't stop until dawn.

Oscar #7-Party animals Though Leonardo DiCaprio, reported to be in New York, was a no-show, happy revelers included (from left) model Carolyn Murphy, the movie's villain Billy Zane and the movie's mother Frances Fisher. Director-producer James Cameron received a thunderous ovation when he arrived with his wife, actress Linda Hamilton, and a big hand was also heard for nominee Gloria Stuart, who lost to L.A. Confidential's Kim Basinger. Kate Winslet came late to the festivities. Celine Dion, who sang the movie's Oscar-winning song both in the film and at the Oscar show, told people she was proud to be part of the event. ---People Online
