It was Bong Joon-ho’s night at the 2020 Oscars.

Parasite made history last night. It was the first ever foreign-language film in the 92-year history of the Academy Awards to take home the Oscar for best picture. And its accolades didn’t stop there. The South Korean film also took home best director for Bong Joon-ho, best international feature film and best original screenplay.
There was no upset for best actor. Joaquin Phoenix was the heavy favorite and won for his role in Joker. Renée Zellweger won best actress for her portrayal of Judy Garland in Judy. Laura Dern won best supporting actress for Marriage Story, and Brad Pitt won best supporting actor for Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood. Sam Mendes’s World War I film 1917 missed for best picture but still won three awards for best cinematography, visual efforts and sound mixing. Little Women won for best costume design, and Bombshell won for makeup and hairstyling. American Factory won for best documentary feature.
You can see the complete list of Oscar winners here.
A few of the award-winning films are still in theaters — including 1917, Little Women and Bombshell — but the rest are available to watch from Netflix, Amazon Video, Apple’s TV app (aka iTunes), Vudu, YouTube Movies and other services from the comfort of your couch.

What can I watch right now on Netflix?
Netflix’s recent strategy of releasing high-profile movies in select theaters (thus making them eligible for awards) and then offering the same films on its service less than a month later may annoy traditionalists (and theater execs), but it means that two Oscar-winning flicks are ready for you to watch right now with a Netflix subscription — along with another two nominated films. The Irishman and The Two Popes went home empty-handed last night, but Marriage Story and the documentary American Factory each took home a statue.
