Default Oscars 2019: Alfonso Cuaron Wins The Best Director For Roma!

Oscars 2019: Mexican filmmaker Alfonso Cuaron won the Best Director honour for his black-and-white semi-autobiographical film Roma.

It is the second Best Directing Award for Cuaron who had earlier won it for space drama “Gravity” in 2014.

“I thank the Academy for recognising a film centred on an indigenous woman, one of the 70 million domestic workers without workers’ rights,” Cuaron said at the gala on Sunday night.

Cuaron also thanked his actors Yalitza Aparicio and Marina de Tavira, saying “they are the film”.

“Gracias, Gracias, Gracias,” he ended his speech in Mexican style.

Cuaron received four nominations in four different award categories for the same film this time. He is only the fourth person with the feat.

He missed out on the Best Picture Award, which went to “Green Book“.
