It was a night of historic firsts at the 95th Academy Awards. Michelle Yeoh became the first Asian woman to win a Best Actress Oscar while Ruth E Carter became the first black woman to win two Oscars.
Carter, who won for Black Panther in 2019, received her second Oscar for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever on Sunday night, dedicating her win to her late mother, Mabel Carter, and the film's late star, Chadwick Boseman.
A Telugu song won Best Original Song, also marking the first time a track from an Indian-made film has ever won at the awards. Naatu Naatu from the record-breaking South Indian film RRR has been sweeping all the major awards, capping its historic run with an Oscar win.
Yeoh's film Everything Everywhere All at Once went to the awards as the most nominated film, with 11 nods, and ended the night with the biggest haul — a total of seven. Directing duo Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, known in the industry as Daniels, also won Best Directing and Best Original Screenplay.
Their absurdist drama told the story of a Chinese-American woman who's thrown into the adventure of a lifetime when she's chosen to save the multiverse from a powerful being.
German anti-war film All Quiet on the Western Front was the next big winner with four Oscars, including Best International Feature Film. The Netflix film is an adaptation of the 1929 novel of the same name by Erich Maria Remarque.
Set during the waning days of the Second World War, the story centres on Paul Baumer, an idealistic young German who enlists as a soldier, and who is soon exposed to the horrors of war.

Some of Darwish's last words
"They see their tomorrows slipping out of their reach. And though it seems to them that everything outside this reality is heaven, yet they do not want to go to that heaven. They stay, because they are afflicted with hope." - Mahmoud Darwish, to attendees of the Palestine Festival of Literature, 2008
His life in brief: Born in a village near Galilee, he lived in exile for most of his life and started writing poetry after high school. He was arrested several times by Israel for what were deemed to be inciteful poems. Most of his work focused on the love and yearning for his homeland, and he was regarded the Palestinian poet of resistance. Over the course of his life, he published more than 30 poetry collections and books of prose, with his work translated into more than 20 languages. Many of his poems were set to music by Arab composers, most significantly Marcel Khalife. Darwish died on August 9, 2008 after undergoing heart surgery in the United States. He was later buried in Ramallah where a shrine was erected in his honour.
