First "whoa" of the night

Alan Arkin's win for "Little Miss Sunshine" cuts into the sweep by persons of color. Djimon Honsou of "Blood Diamond" and Eddie Murphy of "Dreamgirls" -- who had a leg up from the SAG Awards, we thought -- were left in their seats. Arkin is the first "first-timer" among major categories. More to come, for sure.
