(im just gonna paste this short write-up from cnn.com:)
In an unprecedented sweep, "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" set an Oscar record by winning all 11 awards for which it had been nominated, including best picture of the year. Aside from best picture and director, the awards "Return of the King" won were: adapted screenplay (Jackson, Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens), song ("Into the West"), score (Howard Shore), visual effects, art direction, costume design, makeup, sound mixing and film editing.

Jackson also paid tribute to the film's cast for getting "their tongues around this rather awkward text and [making] it come to life," and the government and people of his native New Zealand, a country that had been the subject of ribbing from host Billy Crystal as a "Rings" sweep became possible.
