20:25 The Oscars that celebrated change and diversity
Romantic fantasy "The Shape of Water" won the best picture Oscar on Sunday, the film industry's most prestigious honor, on a night where themes of female empowerment and activism almost overshadowed the awards.
The Fox Searchlight movie's Mexican filmmaker, Guillermo del Toro, won best director, dashing the hopes of a rare win by a woman or a black filmmaker.
The movie about a mute cleaning woman who falls in love with a strange river creature had gone into the ceremony with a leading 13 nominations, and won a total of four Academy Awards.
Greta Gerwig's independent mother-daughter tale "Lady Bird" came away empty-handed while Universal Pictures' racial satire "Get Out" got just one award - for original screenplay - despite speculation that its bold take on modern race relations might take the top prize.
"I stopped writing this movie about 20 times because I thought it was impossible. I thought it wasn't going to work," "Get Out" director and screenwriter Jordan Peele said.
Britain's Gary Oldman won his first Oscar for playing World War Two leader Winston Churchill in Warner Bros.' "Darkest Hour," while Frances McDormand's woman in a vengeful fury was a popular best actress winner for Fox Searchlight's dark comedy "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri."
19:17 Indian stars Shashi Kapoor and Sridevi, who passed away recently, featured in the In Memoriam section at the 90th Academy Awards today.

16:08 Quotes of the winners
Gary Oldman: "Winning an Oscar for playing one of the greatest Britons who ever lived makes this doubly special. This film, this company of actors and Joe Wright, has been an unforgettable experience and a highlight of my career."
Jordan Peele: "This is a renaissance. I almost never became a director because of such a shortage of role models; Spike Lee, John Singleton, the Peebles, the Hughes Brothers – the exceptions to the rule."
J. Miles Dale: "It’s a great moment for Canadian filmmaking – more Oscar nominations than any other Canadian film. We’re really proud.”
Frances McDormand on @3Billboards: "“It represents a good conversation about compassion and inclusion.”
13:04 Gary Oldman: "The worst thing you can do as an artist is second guess yourself. But sometimes I still have that little demon on my shoulder trying to do that."
12:40 Gary Oldman: "Winning an Oscar for playing one of the greatest Britons who ever lived makes this doubly special. This film, this company of actors and Joe Wright, has been an unforgettable experience and a highlight of my career."
12:27 Gary Oldman: "It’s easier to throw things out when something new comes along just because you can, but getting Kazuhiro Tsuji was contingent on my doing this role. Only he could do it."
12:15 Gary Oldman: "Makeup and clothes are things that are the closest to the actor. They actually touch you. The people who do that are the first ones you meet in the morning."
12:09 Jordan Peele: "This is a renaissance. I almost never became a director because of such a shortage of role models; Spike Lee, John Singleton, the Peebles, the Hughes Brothers – the exceptions to the rule."
11:59 Guillermo Del Toro: "When we started this, we talked seriously about doing this with department heads in Canada. We wanted to showcase the talent there, where you don’t just go and use a rebate."
11:55 Guillermo Del Toro on the future of Fox Searchlight: "It’s above my pay grade! But I’m continuing conversations with them about future projects."
11:48 Guillermo Del Toro: "Every time we can demonstrate Mexican exports things like science, arts, culture, it brings important things to world discourse. It also helps us remember where we’re from, honoring your roots and country."
11:09 Frances McDormand: "We need to send a message to the public that we can make a difference as an industry. The commission being headed by Anita Hill is smart. We’ve started a conversation that will change something."
11:05 Frances McDormand on 3Billboards: “It represents a good conversation about compassion and inclusion.”
11:02 The women described 2017, which included blockbuster and critically acclaimed films that were not centered on white men - from female-led action movie "Wonder Woman" to racial satire "Get Out" - as a move toward a more inclusive film industry.
"The changes we are witnessing are being driven by the powerful sound of new voices, of different voices, of our voices, joining together in a mighty chorus that is finally saying: 'Time's up,'" Judd said.
11:00 Women filmmakers and artists of color celebrated a year of diversity at the 90th Academy Awards on Sunday, saluting the #MeToo movement against sexual harassment and urging under-represented artists to seize the momentum.
A segment dedicated to the issues was narrated by Ashley Judd, Salma Hayek and Annabella Sciorra, three of the dozens of women who have accused Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual misconduct, helping touch off the MeToo movement.
10:52 Frances McDormand, who won the Oscar for Best Actress for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, while accepting the award asked each and every female actor, director, cinematographer, writer, artist, to stand up to be acknowledged. She ended her speech with two words -- Inclusion Rider.

From the Louis Vuitton black trousers worn by Emma Stone to the electric pink Michael Kors gown wrapped around Viola Davis, this year's Oscar runway was a study in contrasts that celebrated individual flair.

08:52 At the Oscars, Jimmy Kimmel did not hesitate in calling out onetime Hollywood titan Harvey Weinstein, who was expelled from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences after more than 70 women came forward to accuse him of sexual misconduct, including rape.
Weinstein has denied ever having non-consensual sex with anyone. "There were a lot of great nominees, but Harvey deserved it the most," Kimmel said of the expulsion, adding that the only other academy member thrown out of the organization was an obscure character actor punished for sharing confidential movie "screener" videos that ended up on the internet.

08:40 Comedian Jimmy Kimmel launched his return stint as Oscar host by immediately confronting this year's elephant in the room - the campaign against sexual misconduct and anger at gender inequality roiling Hollywood in recent months.
In his opening monologue, Kimmel employed a sight gag centered on the larger-than-life but anatomically simplified Oscar statue standing on stage for the 90th anniversary presentation of the Academy Awards to make a point.
