Last night, the 92nd Annual Academy Awards which celebrates the achievements in television and film over the previous year, held at the Hollywood and Highland in Los Angeles.
The award ceremony proceeded without a host for the second time following the 2019 controversy which forced Kevin Hart to step down from hosting the previous gig over his homophobic tweets.
“Parasite” took home the top prize at the 92nd Academy Awards, becoming the first non-English language film to win the best picture award.

The film also won the award for best international feature, best director and best original screenplay.
“I’m speechless,” Kwak Sin Ae, producer of “Parasite,” said during her acceptance speech. “We never imagined this to ever happen. We are so happy.
