The 96th Academy Awards held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on March 10 saw Christopher Nolan, Cillian Murphy and Emma Stone winning in the most coveted categories.

Christopher Nolan clinched the Best Director award — and his first Oscar — for his biographical thriller Oppenheimer, while Cillian Murphy took home the Best Actor in a Leading Role award for playing the American theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer.

Emma Stone bagged her second Oscar for her role as Bella Baxter in Yorgos Lanthimos’s Poor Things at the awards show.

Da'Vine Joy Randolph won the Best Supporting Actress award for Alexander Payne’s The Holdovers, while Robert Downey Jr. got the Best Supporting Actor trophy for Nolan’s Oppenheimer.

Among other heartwarming wins, there was Japanese filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki with the Best Animated Feature award for The Boy and the Heron, touted to be his final Studio Ghibli project, and Wes Anderson’s The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar which bagged the Best Live Action Short Film award, marking the 54-year-old filmmaker’s first Oscar win.
