Spotlight won best picture, but it was also a big night for Mad Max: Fury Road, Brie Larson, and especially for Leonardo DiCaprio.
Spotlight, an ensemble drama about a group of reporters who uncover proof of sex abuse in the Catholic church, took best picture at Sunday night's Oscars, capping off a night as lighthearted and fun as it was controversial.
It was also a big night for the talent behind Mad Max: Fury Road. The film about a futuristic dystopia won gold for Best Sound Mixing, Best Sound Editing, Best Film Editing, Best Makeup and Hairstyling, Best Production Design, Best Costume Design.
Brie Larson was, perhaps, the star of the evening. She took home the Best Actress prize for her role as a woman imprisoned for years inside a shed with her son, Room.
