Oscars 2020: Watch All The Highlights From The Awards

The key moments from this year's Academy Awards...

Comments

The 92nd Academy Awards took place last night, and delivered some of the biggest surprises in years. Bong Joon Ho's South Korean sensation Parasite won four Oscars, including Best Picture, making it the first foreign language film ever to win that prize. There were also some memorable musical performances, powerful speeches, and hilarious introductions from various hosts.

The Oscars is a long ceremony, and not everyone stays the course for the whole thing. And of course, if you don't live in the US, there's a chance that it all took place in the middle of the night. So to make sure you didn't miss any of the highlights, we've gathered together all the best clips from the night.

Janelle Monáe kicked off the night with typically wild reworking of her song "Come Alive," that included visual and lyrical references to a host of movies (not just nominated ones) before ending with a version of Elton John's "I'm Still Standing."

For the second year running, the Oscars didn't have a traditional host who would appear throughout the night. But Steve Martin and Chris Rock's opening routine was wonderfully funny, and a reminder that the old format can work with the right people and material.

Brad Pitt won his first ever Oscar for his supporting role in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. His speech managed to be both political and personal, as he talked about looking back over the years to his start in Hollywood.

Taika Waititi was another first-time winner, who picked up his award for Best Adapted Screenplay for Jojo Rabbit.

Knowing how funny Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph are, there's every possibility that their, erm, interesting choice of attire while handing out the award for Best Production Design and Best Costume Design was intentionally bizarre. Or maybe they just love those clothes. What do I know about fashion?

Will Ferrell and Julia-Louis Dreyfus made for another hilarious double-act while introducing the Oscar for best cinematography, with their, erm, clear understanding of this great cinematic artform...

It was inevitable that Cats would be mentioned at some point during the ceremony, and it was two of the cast members themselves-James Corden and Rebel Wilson--who took it upon themselves to mock the much-maligned feline flop.....

Bong Joon Ho has become a regular fixture at awards ceremonies over the past few weeks, but it was still clearly an enormous thrill for him to pick up the Best Director award.

One of the night's most powerful musical moments came from Billie Eilish, who sang The Beatles's "Yesterday" during the In Memorandum section...

There was perhaps little surprise when Joaquin Phoenix picked up the Best Actor award, but it didn't stop his speech being every bit as powerful as the others he has delivered during this awards season.

As for Parasite, it remained an Oscar-defining moment when the movie won best Picture. Even the attempts to the organisers to shut down the Parasite crew's speeches failed, with the audience reaction forcing them to turn the lights back on.
