“Anora” had a night to remember Sunday at the Academy Awards.
Sean Baker’s film about a Brooklyn exotic dancer who marries the spoiled son of a Russian oligarch took home five Oscars, including best picture and best actress for star Mikey Madison.
Baker, who wrote, directed and edited the film, won the Oscar for all three of those roles. He is now the second person ever to win four Oscars in one night, with the first being Walt Disney.
Other major winners Sunday were Adrien Brody, who won his second best actor Oscar for his role in “The Brutalist”; Zoe Saldaña, who won best supporting actress for “Emilia Pérez”; and Kieran Culkin, who won best supporting actor for “A Real Pain.”

Madison accepts the Oscar for best actress. Madison, who portrays an exotic dancer and escort in "Anora," recognized the sex worker community. “I will continue to support and be an ally,” she said in her speech. “All of the incredible people, the women, that I’ve had the privilege of meeting from that community has been one of the highlights of this entire incredible experience.”
