John Legend, Common, Birdman, Win Oscars 2015


The biggest awards ceremony in Hollywood, Oscars held its 2015 edition on Sunday night, February 22, 2015 in America.
Birdman, Alejandro González Iñárritu’s satire about an ageing movie star trying to reinvent himself as a credible Broadway actor, took best picture and three other top awards at the 2015 Oscars, upending an awards season that had largely been playing out according to expectations.
Longterm favourite Boyhood – which took best drama and best director at the Golden Globes last month – lost out in both categories to Birdman at the final hurdle, although Patricia Arquette secured best supporting actress.
Birdman tied with Grand Budapest Hotel at the top of the academy’s league table, with both films taking four Oscars each, although the latter scored in less prominent categories.
Singers, John Legend and Common grabbed the best Original song award for the movie Selma.
