Winners have emerged from the 93rd Oscars Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS).

The awards ceremony which took place in Los Angeles honoured the best films of 2020 and early 2021 at both Union Station and the Dolby Theatre , on April 25, 2021, two months later than originally planned, due to the

impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cinema .

The Academy Awards looked different this year: The red carpet was hemmed, and the after-parties were cut.

It was an unusual setup in an unusual year, where many of the films were released while movie theaters were largely closed because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Nevertheless, this ceremony made some history. Chloé Zhao won the best director for “Nomadland,” becoming the first woman of colour to win the award, and the second woman ever to win. (Kathryn Bigelow was the first, for “The Hurt Locker.”) Yuh-Jung Youn became the first Korean actress to win an acting Oscar, for her supporting role in “Minari.”

Daniel Kaluuya won the best supporting actor award for his portrayal of Fred Hampton in “Judas and the Black Messiah.” Frances McDormand (“Nomadland”) won a third best-actress Oscar, and Anthony Hopkins (“The Father”) won for best actor over the late Chadwick Boseman, who had been heavily favored. “Nomadland” won best picture.
