Anora was a big winner on the evening, taking three out of four of the main categories. It collected accolades in Best Picture, Best Director for Sean Baker, and Best Actress for Mikey Madison, who beat Demi Moore in a closely-fought race.
Adrien Brody won his second Oscar, pipping Timothée Chalamet to the post in the Best Actor race. The star followed up his 2002 win for The Pianist, a win which crowned the then-29-year-old the youngest Best Actor winner ever.

Hide AdFormer award season darling Emilia Perez was mostly shut out of the categories, following controversy over lead actress Karla Sofia Gascon’s old, resurfaced tweets. The crime musical only went home with two statues for Best Supporting Actress (Zoe Saldaña) and Best Original Song despite receiving the highest number of nominations (13).
Blockbuster Wicked also failed the pick up awards in the major categories, but did win two Oscars for Best Costume Design and Best Production Design.
