Comic film adaptations can now also win Oscars. Koreans show how filmmaking can be done at the highest level and an Icelander sets the tone. These are the winners of the 2020 Oscars.

Let's keep it short. Tonight, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences presented the Oscars for the 92nd time. In other words: the best films of the past film year were honoured.

The ceremony was a mix of the expected and big surprises. It was clear that Pixar would win another Oscar. But the surprise was Joker with its two Oscars and Parasite with four. Ford v Ferrari also pocketed two trophies.

But let's move forward. Here's the full list of winners with trailers for the winning films.
