Gary Oldman won the Best Actor award for Darkest Hour
The Shape Of Water won the top prize - Best Picture
Three Billboards fetched the Best Actress award to Frances McDormand
Gary Oldman won his first Best Actor Oscar, as expected, for his work as Winston Churchill in Darkest Hour. Also expected was Allison Janney's Best Supporting Actress win for playing figure skater Tonya Harding's terrible mother in I, Tonya.
The Best Supporting Actor Oscar was seen to be something of a three horse race between Frances' Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri co-star Sam Rockwell, The Florida Project's Willem Dafoe and All The Money In The World's Christopher Plummer. Sam Rockwell repeated his Golden Globe win, in a category that also included Woody Harrelson from the same film.
Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk won three Oscars for excellence in sound and film editing. Darkest Hour's makeup team also won an Oscar for their work transforming Gary Oldman into Winston Churchill - it reportedly took four hours each day.
The other big films scored a win each - Call Me By Your Name, Phantom Thread and Get Out, which won its African-American director and writer Jordan Peele a historic Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
Jimmy Kimmel returned as the host for the second year in a row - the first host since Billy Crystal to do so. Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway were asked back to present the Best Picture Oscar again despite last year's envelope mix-up - this time, it went okay.
