<p>The King&#8217;s Speech missed out on two early Oscars as the 83rd Academy Awards began.</p>
<p>Tom Hanks presented the first award, for Art Direction, to the team behind Alice in Wonderland.</p>
<p>The film, which starred Helena Bonham Carter, was made by her partner Tim Burton.</p>
<p>Sci-fi thriller Inception picked up the Cinematography award.</p>
<p>The awards had opened with a montage showing hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway in scenes from this year&#8217;s Best Picture nominations.</p>
<p>Veteran actor Kirk Douglas came on stage to a standing ovation to present the Best Supporting Actress Oscar.</p>
<p>There was more disappointment for The King&#8217;s Speech as Helena Bonham Carter, who played Queen Elizabeth, lost out to Melissa Leo for The Fighter.</p>
<p>The shocked winner said: &#8220;I&#8217;m just shaking in my boots now.&#8221;</p>
