Twenty-six-year-old Anne Hathaway proves she’s a Hollywood force to be reckoned with as she tied with the veteran star Meryl Streep to win the Best Actress honor at the 14th Annual Critics’ Choice Awards Thursday night.

A teary Hathaway, who won for her display in "Rachel Getting Married," gave a touching speech as she praised the acting legend, with whom she worked in "The Devil Wears Prada." Streep, who took home the award for her performance in "Doubt," "set the bar so high," a stunning Hathaway said on stage. One woman who looked less than impressed by the somber address was fellow nominee Angelina Jolie.

I thought that Anne Hathaway was very sweet and very appreciative for winning such a great award.

I just saw “Doubt” yesterday. The acting, all around, was phenomenal.

I’ll bet Angelina Jolie would love to go back and change the look on her face throughout that acceptance speech.

Ya… that’s one of the oddest expressions on angelina’s face. but i can’t imagine the woman is actually thinking what her face looks like she’s thinking. I’d imagine she’s more of a pro than that. but i spose one never knows….

It is so easy to exercise judgment and to Interpret a look or even a word to suit our biases. I have no idea what Angelina Jolie was thinking; maybe she had cramps. What I do know is that Anne Hathaway’s acceptance speech was heartfelt and humble. Her tribute to her fellow actresses was lovely, but her thanks to her father is what I found truly moving. Unless we are close friends or family, we never really know what another person is coping with.
