Oscars 2022: Full winners list

It was an action-packed night!

Author: Ben TravisPublished 28th Mar 2022

Well, that was dramatic. If the whole La La Land and Moonlight debacle delivered an Oscars ceremony that would go down in history back in 2017, the 2022 Academy Awards just delivered another doozy: a night filled with shocking moments, surprising wins, and bizarre developments.

Most notably, that Will Smith appeared to hit Chris Rock in the face live on stage, moments before going on to win Best Actor and deliver a lengthy tear-strewn acceptance speech.

First up, the biggest award of the night: the Best Picture win that the Producers Guild and Writers Guild Awards seemed to predict earlier in the week came to fruition, and CODA walked away with the little gold statue – overtaking former favourite The Power Of The Dog, Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast, and Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story.

Elsewhere, Sian Heder’s film also won Best Adapted Screenplay (it’s adapted from a 2014 French film), and Best Supporting Actor for Troy Kotsur – victorious in all three categories for which it was nominated. Though Jane Campion’s film lost Best Picture, she did win the Director award – the second time she’s been nominated in that category, following The Pianoin 1994.

The biggest winner of the night, though, was Dune. Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi epic won five trophies through the night, mostly in technical categories – bagging Cinematography, Sound, Editing, Original Score, and Production Design. However, most of those awards were handed out, controversially, before the main show began – with extracted footage spliced into the live broadcast. Elsewhere, there was a fairly even spread of wins – including Jessica Chastain for Best Actress in The Eyes Of Tammy Faye, Ariana DeBose for Best Supporting Actress in West Side Story, Kenneth Branagh for Original Screenplay for Belfast, and International Feature Film for Drive My Car.
