Best Director winner
Alejandro González Iñárritu just made
Oscar history with his second Academy Award.
"
The Revenant" filmmaker is only the third person to ever win back-to-back Oscars for direction, and the first director in 65 years to pull it off. He previously won for 2015's Best Picture winner, "
Birdman."
Iñárritu was long favored to take home the award, after previously winning the Directors Guild Award for the second year in a row. The four other filmmakers competing for Oscar were:
Adam McKay for "
The Big Short,"
Tom McCarthy for "
Spotlight,"
George Miller for "
Mad Max: Fury Road," and
Lenny Abrahamson for "
Room."
The Mexico-born Iñárritu first came onto the scene with the gritty "
Amores Perros" in 2000, followed by the 2003 drama "
21 Grams." He also directed the Academy Award-nominated "
Babel" (2006) and the
Javier Bardem-starring "
Biutiful" (2010).
Like "Birdman" before, "The Revenant" showcases the director's love for shooting scenes all in one take -- a feat all the more impressive given the film's arduous production. A feat that the Academy bestowed Sunday night with Oscar gold.
