Lauren Bacall finally received an Oscar this weekend. The actress debuted in 1944, but it wasn't until this weekend that she finally received a statuette.

"I can't believe it - a man at last," she said on receiving the honor. She was given the prize at this weekend's Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Governors Awards.

Anjelica Huston presented the Oscar to the legendary actress, saying that Bacall "defines what it means to be a great actress and also a huge movie star."

Portions of the ceremony will be shown during the Oscars telecast on March 7, 2010.
