Parasite Takes Top Honors At 92nd Academy Awards

HOLLYWOOD — The 92nd Oscars took place last night at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood. Joker, which led all films with 11 nominations, took home two awards for Best Actor (Joaquin Phoenix) and Original Score (Hildur Guðnadóttir). The Irishman, which received 10 nominations, didn’t win a single award. Instead, Parasite was the big winner, receiving statuettes for Directing (Bong Joon Ho), International Feature, Original Screenplay, and Motion Picture.
In the Animation category, Pixar's Toy Story 4 took top honors. Also, 1917 walked away with the top prize in Visual Effects, thanks to work led by the artists at MPC. Ford v Ferrari was honored for both Sound Editing (Donald Sylvester) and Film Editing (Michael McCusker and Andrew Buckland).
