Anora completed its fairytale ending at the 2025 Oscars.
The dramedy about a sex worker who marries the son of a Russian oligarch won five Oscars, including Best Picture. Anora’s Sean Baker became the first person to win four Oscars for the same movie. Baker walked away with Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Editing. Anora star Miey Madison scored an upset victory over The Substance’s Demi Moore for Best Actress.
The Brutalist, Brady Corbet’s sweeping epic about a Holocaust survivor and architect who emigrates to the United States, won three Oscars, including Best Cinematographer and Best Original Score. The Brutalist star Adrien Brody took home Best Actor, edging out Timothée Chalamet.
