South Korean class satire “Parasite” won Best Picture Sunday night at the 92nd Academy Awards, making history as the first foreign-language movie to win the most coveted prize in filmdom. The Best Director win by Bong inspired him to heap praise on the other four directors nominated in the category. (The other win was for Best Original Score, which went to first-time nominee Hildur Guðnadóttir, a composer from Iceland.) Brad Pitt’s well-received win as Best Supporting Actor for “Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood” helped get the night off to a rousing start. He won early for Best Original Screenplay, a prize he shared with co-writer Han Jin-won.
