Oscar Nominees Shine As They Dine

Those Who Got Nods This Year "Do Lunch" At Annual Academy Awards Luncheon

(CBS)  The nominees for this year's Academy Awards attended an annual, exclusive luncheon.

More than 100 gathered in Beverly Hills to "do" the lunch everyone in Hollywood wants to get to "do."

Early Show national correspondent Hattie Kauffman watched as the stars addressed their fellow nominees from a podium.

Kate Winslet, she noted, is hoping for a win after six nominations, while Mickey Roarke, is this year's "Comeback Kid."

Rourke, who's up for Beat Actor for "The Wrestler," said, "The biggest change, I think, is people that I burnt bridges with many years ago seem to have forgiven me for the horrible way I carried myself."

Getting an Oscar nod changes the life of an actor, Kauffman noted. They're caught up in the ultimate high of the award season.

For some, the experience is powerful and overwhelming.

Taraji P. Henson, a Best Supporting Actress nominee for her performance in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," revealed, "Sometimes, I feel like I have Turrets (syndrome), because I'm driving along and everything is fine and then I think about Oscar and I'm like, 'Ahhhh!" '

Winslet, nominated for Best Actress for "The Reader," admitted, "I get very emotional about these things I discover. I think I'm not cut out for this. I'm too emotional to lose and too emotional to win!"

And Anne Hathaway, contending for Best Actress for "Rachel Getting Married," recalled, "When I was really little, I confused the Oscars and the Miss America Pageant, a lot. So, I would pull out my tin foil crown that I would wear for the Miss America Pageant and put it on for the Oscars. My parents never corrected me."

The Oscars will be handed out Sunday, Feb. 22.
