Kate Winslet Won the Oscar-2009 for her role in the film “The Reader” at the 81st annual Academy Awards in Los Angeles, California, February 22, 2009.

Kate was acknowledged for her role in a film based on post-WWII Germany where she fell in love with a boy almost less than half of her age. In her speech a composed Kate thanked husband Sam Mendes and children Mia, 8, and Joe, 5, for loving her just the way she is.And in an unconventional moment, she shouted out to her father Roger and asked him to whistle so she knew where he was.

Kate Said, “I think we all can’t believe we are in the category with Meryl Streep at all. To the academy, thank you so much. I’d be lying if I haven’t made a version of this speech before,” she said. I think I was probably 8 years old and staring into the bathroom mirror and this (Oscar) would be a shampoo bottle. But it’s not a shampoo bottle now.”

And she also thanked her father, saying, “Dad, whistle or something ’cause then I’ll know where you are.” He whistled back from his seat at the Kodak Theater. You just don’t think that these dreams that seem so silly and so impossible could ever really come true.”
