According to the New York Times, Million Dollar Baby was the winner for the Oscars Best Motion Picture. They have listed 77 years of Best Motion Pictures from the Oscars on the following site:
The Oscar nominees for Best Picture in 2005 were:
  • Million Dollar Baby
  • The Aviator
  • Finding Neverland
  • Ray
  • Sideways

The star of Million Dollar Baby, Hilary Swank also won in the category of Best Actress in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Maggie Fitzgerald. She beat out the following competitors:
  • Annette Bening - Being Julia
  • Kate Winslet - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
  • Catalina Sandino Moreno - Maria Full of Grace
  • Imedla Staunton - Vera Drake

Million Dollar Baby was a critical success, picking up four Oscars in total:
  • Best Picture
  • Best Director - Clint Eastwood
  • Best Actress in a Leading Role - Hilary Swank
  • Best Actor in a Supporting Role - Morgan Freeman
As well as a further three nominations in the following categories:
  • Best Actor in a Leading Role - Clint Eastwood
  • Best Film Editing
  • Best Adapted Screenplay
While Million Dollar Baby was certainly a success at the 77th Academy Awards, Martin Scorsese's biopic The Aviator picked up one more award, with five, making it the first (and most recent) occurrence of a film picking up more awards in total than the Best Picture winner.
