The 92nd Academy Awards, better known as Oscar, was held on Sunday night in Los Angeles with Parasite and its director Bong Joon-ho winning Best Picture, Best Screenplay, Best International Feature Film, and Best Director.
Netflix made out with just two awards at the 2020 Oscar Awards despite having 24 nominations.
The streaming company won Best Documentary for American Factory (produced by President Barack and Michelle Obama’s production company) and Best Supporting Actress for Laura Dern. Its biggest films — The Irishman and The Two Popes — all went home empty-handed.
