From CODA to Dune: Full list of winners at Oscars 2022

The coming-of-age comedy-drama CODA (which, incidentally, is the acronym for Child of Deaf Adults) and Denis Villeneuve's sci-fi epic Dune emerged as the biggest winners at the recently-concluded 94th Academy Awards held at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 27. The event was hosted by Amy Schumer, Regina Hall and Wanda Sykes. Indian documentary Writing With Fire was nominated for Best Documentary but did not win the award.

Dune bagged six awards, all in technical categories, while CODA made Oscar history by winning the awards in all three categories it was nominated in. It also became the first film from a major streaming platform -- Apple TV -- to bag the prestigious award of Best Picture, becoming thereby the first official nod from the Academy to the tectonic shift taking place in the entertainment industry because of the rise of OTT platforms in the COVID-19 era.

Jane Campion, staved off competitiontier from the likes of Seven Spielberg and Kenneth Branagh, to win the award for Best Director for her much-admired film, The Power of the Dog. This is her first Oscar win in the category. She also became the first woman to have been nominated twice in the Best Director category and only the third woman after Chloe Zhao's win last year for Nomadland and Kathryn Bigelow's win for Hurt Locker in 2010. Set in the director's native New Zealand, The Power of the Dog is a character study of toxic masculinity and repressed sexuality.

Dune bagged Oscars for Best Visual Effects, Best Cinematography, Best Production Design, Best Film Editing, Best Original Score and Best Sound. CODA took home the honours for Best Supporting Actor (Troy Kotsur), Best Adapted Screenplay (Sian Heder) and Best Picture.

Will Smith won the honour for Best Lead Actor for his performance in King Richard. The biographical drama The Eyes of Tammy Faye won two awards -- Best Lead Actress for Jessica Chastain and Best Makeup and Hairstyling. The broadcast from Dolby Theater also honoured the history of the art form of films as it brought back the casts of classics such as The Godfather and Pulp Fiction and celebrated the 60th anniversary of James Bond with a presentation featuring skateboarder Tony Hawk, surfer Kelly Slater and snowboarder Shaun White.

Ariana DeBose received the award for Best Supporting Actress award for her performance in Steven Spielberg's West Side Story. DeBose was a frontrunner as the winner after she bagged all major precursor awards in the best supporting actress category, including a Golden Globe, a SAG Award, and a BAFTA. A queer Afro-Latina, DeBose played Anita, a San Juan Hill seamstress and the older sister to female lead Maria (Rachel Zegler) in the film. The Best Animated Feature Film went to Disney's Encanto. The Japanese film Drive My Car, an international awards circuit favourite, clinched the title for Best International Film.

Jenny Beavan was conferred with Best Costume Design for Cruella, a film she initially almost refused to work on. Kenneth Branagh walked away with Best Original Screenplay for his writing in the coming-of-age drama, Belfast.

Other winners included Summer of Soul, which won Best Documentary Feature; ‘No Time To Die’ (Best Original Song) for the title track by Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell; The Queen of Basketball (Best Documentary Short Subject); The Windshield Wiper (Best Animated Short Film); and The Long Goodbye (Best Live Action Short Film).
