Takes home four awards

Los Angeles: In a historic victory that highlighted the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ scramble to diversify its voting ranks following the outcry over #OscarsSoWhite, the South Korean thriller ‘Parasite’ won best picture — the first foreign-language film to do so — and collected three other awards, including one for Bong Joon Ho’s direction, at the 92nd Academy Awards (Oscars) ceremony held at Dolby Theatre, here. This year’s ceremony marked the second consecutive year the Oscars went host-less.
