After a long night at the Oscars, Penelope Cruz went home with the Oscar for best supporting actress.
Cruz, who was nominated for best actress in 2007, is the first Spanish actress to win an Oscar. Her performance in Woody Allen's movie "Vicky Christina Barcelona" as a fiery ex-wife is what landed her the award.
The major publications in Madrid held off on their editions of the Monday morning paper, as they all held a spot for the marvelous Cruz.
Cruz was praised by several admirers, including director Pedro Almodovar, and Deputy Prime Minister Maria Teresa Fernandez who praised Cruz on her win by saying it, "places Spanish actors and actresses at the highest level" according to an article.
According to an article, Mariano Rajoy, conservative opposition leader said in Cruz's honor, that the Oscar pays tribute to, "your natural talent and your effort, and continued sacrifice in a job well done."
