Oscars 2018 winners; best speeches (no dress-code protest, BTW)
The Shape of Water” won the best picture, and Guillermo del Toro won best director for the film.
The 90th Academy Awards ceremony popularly called Oscars skittered between the serious and the silly on Sunday night(the United States West Coast Time), taking time both to acknowledge #MeToo, but the show ultimately emerged as a powerful call for inclusion and diversity in Hollywood. Ushering a movement in the entertainment industry spreading all over the world, and Nigeria is not going to be left out.
