All That You Need To Know About Last Night’s Oscars
The Oscars are known for providing viewers with some of the most memorable moments in entertainment and last night was no exception.
One of the biggest events in Hollywood took place last night at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. Last night’s glamour filled Oscars was one of historical significance. That is because for the first time ever a non English film had won the Oscars. That film being the South Korean drama film Parasite.
Directed by Bong Joon-ho, the film tells the story of two families that belong from very different social classes. One is a poor family that lives in a semi basement and the other is a rich family that lives in a large house. The film has garnered universal acclaim from many critics.

In the acting department, Joaquin Phoenix and Rene Zellweger continued their winning streak at the award shows as both had won the best actor and best actress award respectively.
