His first win, after 11 nominations since dating back to 1998,  the best picture also took the best screenplay, a story about a revolutionary, anti-social activist, held off other titles, amongst "Sinners", depression-era genre cross-over, brought Michael B. Jordan an Oscar.

 

The Best Actress statuette was received by Jessie Buckley, without any odds, playing aching Shakespeare's partner, Agnes.  The highlight to the most of the film fans belonged to Barbara Streisand's tribute to Robert Redford.
