What a wonderful description from Kevin Costner for his first cinema visit. Congrats to Jane Campion - very deserved👍🙏📽️

[@sherlock1619]

Jane Campion had won the Silver Lion at Venice International Film Festival and had also won the Golden Globe Award, the DGA Award, the Critics Choice Award, the BAFTA Award for Best Directing/Best Director before she won the Academy Award for Best Directing. Therefore, this win was undoubted. She became the third woman to win the Oscar for Best Directing after Kathryn Bigelow and Chloe Zhao. It was a shame that Jane Campion did not win the Oscar for Best Picture just as both Kathryn Bigelow and Chloe Zhao did.

[@jwelch5742]

Jane Campion is the only woman to be nominated twice for Academy Award for Best Director (winning once), and is the first female filmmaker to receive the Palme d'Or for The Piano which also won her the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. She also made history at the 94th Academy Awards when she won Best Director for The Power of the Dog, making her the first woman to win Academy Awards for both directing and screenwriting, and the first woman without winning the Best Picture.

[@pb.j.1753]

This is sooo deserved. The precision in her directing was incredible in this film.

[@commentor93]

That's an interesting criteria you bring up there. As a non-cineast I find it hard to differentiate between what can be credited to the directing and what to the acting. How do you differentiate there?

[@kassiogomes8498]

@@commentor93 Directing isn't only about the acting. Yes, directors tell what the actors have to do, but they do so many more things. Director is like the boss of everyone, he/she will tell the production how they want something and they production team will work to get what the director wants. But when someone is watching a movie and say that the directing was good. It means the camera angles were good, the way the camera moves is precise, directing is about when to do a close up, or when to do a long shot, or when use a handheld camera or a steady camera, etc. Things like these.

[@commentor93]

@@kassiogomes8498 Isn't the creativity with and the directing of the camera also the job of the cameramen like Roger Deakins? How does the academy distinguish between them, in your opinion?

[@kassiogomes8498]

@@commentor93 yes, the cinematographer is responsible for filming the movie, but he doesn't decide how the scene will be filmed. For example, if there is a scene of a character running, the director will decide if that scene will be filmed with the camera behind the actor or with the camera besides the actor, the director will also decides, or in front of the actor, the director will decide if the camera will film the running scene is in a track or in if it will be handheld. After these decisions the cinematographer will do what the director said and he will frame the scene the best way possible. The cinematographer will make sure the focus of the camera is in the right object, and she/he will adjust the lights on set.

Power of the Dog was SUPER snubbed... CODA was fine. I'm tired of them giving the awards to the feel good movie... reminds me of the year Green Book won over Roma. What a joke.

[@thedudewhomadethisvideo]

Yes because Nomadland and Parasite where such feel good films

[@jmo5755]

I agree a bit that CODa was less deserving but CODA is still very good and Green Book beating Roma is infinitely worse than this

The Third Women To win Best Directing!

[@adolfopena7358]

I thought Chloe Zhao was presenting this.

[@rodrigomelo4700]

Kenneth Branagh (Belfast) and/or Denis Villeneuve (Dune: Part One) (not nominated) should have won

[@abrahamlupis9354]

Portrait of Lady and Fire only got one Cesar for a lesser achievement, it was the biggest loser of the 45 Cesar Awards ceremony

IMO, it’s better when a director presents this award; especially if the presenter is last years winner It just doesn’t seem right when non-directors present it

[@jingren]

The Academy NAILED it when they got Guillermo del Toro to present to Alfonso Cuaron, and they did it again with Bong presenting to Chloe (not to mention it was one Asian to another), really hope the Oscars will continue this practice

[@bradleyashworth9666]

Tbf Kevin Costner has literally won an Oscar for Directing. He's definitely more known for his acting but he is at least an Oscar Winning Director presenting.

[@codyhiginbotham6616]

@@bradleyashworth9666 Of course And I wasn’t referring to him necessarily, I was just generally speaking

[@JacobthePug]

KEVIN won directing for Dances With Wolves

[@seankoontz4235]

@Cody Higinbotham They’ve been pretty consistent with that. The last time a non-director presented this category was Emma Stone presenting to Guillermo del Toro, and that was a few years ago

[@adolfopena7358]

I wonder how Netflix feels about this.

[@jessiexyz]

shouldn't have been the only award the film won. At least an acting award, screenplay, cinematography, score and picture should've all been in the bag.

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

I think she was being very rude saying “That was very dramatic.” after Kevin Costner’s intro. It was the most heartfelt thing any presenter’s said at the Oscars in a long time.

[@ledepi34]

If (if) she was so, she was fair.

[@kassiogomes8498]

But it was very dramatic

[@ririschannelx]

She’s a rude person in general considering what she said about the Williams sisters

[@kassiogomes8498]

@@ririschannelx You guys are also very dramatic. There is nothing rude about what she said.

Spielberg had far superior direction. I enjoy Jane's work, though Spielberg should've won.

[@jmo5755]

Steven Spielberg did an amazing job with West Side Story, but Jane Campion was equally as brilliant but in a much more subtle way.

[@JuanJo39]

La academia siempre hace lo mismo, la más nominada es la más perdedora de la noche. Una vergüenza, dio llevarse estatuilla a mejor película y mejor actor principal. Yo perdí la fe en los premios
