Mexico's Alejandro Inarritu wins the Oscar for Best Director for the movie "The Revanant" at the 88th Academy Awards in Hollywood, California February 28, 2016. [Photo/Agencies] |
Inárritu was the first filmmaker in 60 years to win a back-to-back director's Oscar. Inárritu won best director last year for "Birdman," which also won the 2015 best picture Academy Award.
It was the fourth Oscar for Inárritu and came as little surprise after he won a Golden Globe, a British BAFTA award anda trophy from the Directors Guild Awards for the film.
