After a bizarre, eventful, and bizarrely eventful Oscars telecast, the biggest award of the night—Best Picture—was given to one of the favorites from the whole show: director Siân Heder’s Apple TV+ film CODA. In addition to Best Picture, it won Best Adapted Screenplay and awards season star Troy Kotsur won Best Supporting Actor, giving it a perfect record in terms of the categories it was nominated in. Better yet, two of those wins are historically significant, with Kotsur becoming the first deaf man to win an acting Oscar and CODA itself being the first streaming film to win Best Picture at the Oscars—after years of Netflix and Amazon making big plays for the highest honor in Hollywood.
