'Birdman' Wins Best Picture At The 2015 Oscars
One of the haziest Best Picture races in recent memory has been settled: “Birdman” took home the grand prize at Sunday’s Oscars.
Alejandro González Iñárritu’s tale of a washed-up actor’s attempt to stage a career renaissance topped “American Sniper” “Boyhood,” “The Grand Budapest Hotel,” “The Imitation Game,” “Selma,” “The Theory of Everything” and “Whiplash.” It previously won top prizes from the Screen Actors Guild, Directors Guild of America and Producers Guild of America, placing it in a heated contest with Richard Linklater’s longtime purported front-runner “Boyhood.”
“Birdman” marks the second of Iñárritu’s films to earn a Best Picture nomination, following 2006’s “Babel.” The movie was also nominated for Best Actor (Michael Keaton), Best Supporting Actor (Edward Norton), Best Supporting Actress (Emma Stone), Best Director (Iñárritu), Best Original Screenplay (Iñárritu, Nicolás Giacobone, Alexander Dinelaris and Armando Bo), Best Cinematography (Emmanuel Lubezki), Best Sound Mixing (Jon Taylor, Frank A. Montaño and Thomas Varga) and Best Sound Editing (Aaron Glascock and Martín Hernández).
