On Sunday, award season wraps up with the Oscars, ending a spate of events that have seen actors and musicians rewarded for their efforts in the past year. While you may find the shows themselves a bit long and stuffed with too many other things, you can't deny that the best part is when a truly happy or surprised nominee hears their name called as the winner. There have been a few moments of pure joy from certain winners that were captured this award season, and the images will make you feel as happy as they must have been.

Spacey cussed on the stage a moment later about how he couldn't believe his win at the Golden Globes, but just before that, he had a cute moment with his House of Cards costar Kate Mara in the audience when his name was called.
