Following Gladiator was Traffic with four awards, including Soderbergh's, supporting actor for Benicio Del Toro, adapted screenplay by Stephen Gaghan and film editing. foreign language film, art direction, cinematography and original score. Steven Soderbergh did what observers felt was impossible: He won best director for *Traffic* even though people felt he would split the vote by being nominated for *Erin Brockovich*. "It takes a lot of people to make a Colosseum, but it only takes one or two to mess it up," said Douglas Wick, a Gladiator producer. "To all the wizards who brought to life the sights, sounds and citizens of a faraway world, we should take a chisel to this statue and give you your fair share." Gladiator triumphs in Oscar's arena Julia Roberts, the law assistant who takes on a polluting power company in *Erin Brockovich*, won best actress. The Associated Press Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon also scored four Oscars A gildy Roberts ascended the auditorium stage and warned that she would be speaking for a long time "because I may never get up here again." She clutched her first Oscar Crowe, who seemed distracted earlier in the program, responded exuberantly. and said, "This is quite pretty." "Really folks, I owe this to one bloke, and his name is Ridley Scott," Crowe said of his director. Marcia Gay Harden, who played the long-suffering wife of artist Jackson Pollock in Pollock, won best supporting actress. The show began from orbit as astronaut Susen Helms, with fellow crew members of the International Space Station floating by her side, introduced first-time host Steve Martin. Because Pollock had little theater exposure, Harden was considered a longshot. Judi Dench of Chocolat and Kate Hudson of Almost Famous were thought to be more likely. "Ed Harris, thank you for inviting me to share your passion," she said to her director, who also played the title role. Del Toro, the honest Tijuana detective, thanked his director, Soderbergh, and others connected with his movie while Harden noted that few people had seen *Pollock* because it opened in theaters the same week as the Oscar nominations, and thanked the voters for taking the time to review the video-tapes made available to them. "By the way, that introduction cost the government $1 trillion," Martin quipped to the glittering Shrine Auditorium throng.
