Oscars 2016: The Winners
Here’s a full rundown of all the winners of this year’s Oscars.
It’s the biggest date in Hollywood’s cinematic calendar and last night, the 88th Academy Awards – or, as you’re more likely to hear them referred to, The Oscars – were presented in the usual location of Los Angeles’s world-renowned Dolby Theatre, hosted by comedian Chris Rock.
With a build-up dominated by the much-publicised race row, given the complete lack of racial diversity amongst the nominees, and Leonardo DiCaprio’s performance in The Revenant touted to be his crowning glory, how did the event fare? We’ve got the full list of both nominees and winners in each category below.
N.B. – The winner of each category is displayed in bold.
