Sixth time a charm as best actress Winslet keeps composure

KATE WINSLET kept her composure — just — after finally winning an Oscar at the sixth attempt.

The actress — who raised eyebrows for her gushing acceptance speech at the Golden Globes last month — was breathless but staved off the tears as she accepted the best actress gong.

Winslet, 33, told the audience that she had actually first prepared an acceptance speech when she was just eight.
