Devoid of a major controversy this year, the 2018 edition of the Oscars would celebrate the 90th year of the ceremony of all ceremonies. It would be an evening of history with Jordan Peele taking out the award for Best Original Screenplay after being the first black filmmaker to be nominated across three major categories following the success of the horror-thriller title Get Out.
The Shape of Water was the headline act though, seeing Guillermo del Toro take out the competition for Best Picture amid the haul 13 nominations. The previous favorite Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri would lay the platform for Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell to collect the statues in their respective categories.
