On Sunday night at the 2018 Oscars, the big winner was a love story involving a fish-man, which beat out a revenge comedy centered on the death of a teen girl and a horror flick featuring body-snatching Caucasian people.
Heading into the night, Guillermo del Toro’s The Shape of Water led the field with 13 nominations, and it ended up winning four Oscars, including major categories Best Picture and Directing, as well as Production Design and Original Score.
The other big winners of the night were Jordan Peele, who won Best Original Screenplay for Get Out; Frances McDormand and Sam Rockwell, Best Actress and Supporting Actor (respectively) for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri; James Ivory, who won Best Adapted Screenplay for Call Me by Your Name; Gary Oldman, who won Best Actor for The Darkest Hour; and Allison Janney, for Best Supporting Actress for I,Tonya.
This year’s Oscar race was marked by a wide-open Best Picture race. And as evidenced by the variety in winners in those major awards, there was no sweep. Del Toro’s The Shape of Water won Best Picture but didn’t win in any of the acting categories, nor did it win Original Screenplay.

Jordan Peele made history tonight when he became the first African-America to win best original screenplay.
Tiffany Haddish was hilarious. She cracked jokes about her feet feeling sore from wearing heels and asked,"Are the Oscars too black now?"
Emma Stone called out the Academy for nominating only woman for best director. "These four men and Greta Gerwig created their own masterpieces this year."
Jimmy Kimmel made a penis joke about "Oscar" while addressing sexual harassment in Hollywood. "He is (a) literal little statue of limitations. And that's the kind of men we need more of in this town."
Kobe Byrant won an Oscar. His nomination sparked backlash online, with some criticizing the Academy's decision to nominate Bryant, who was accused of rape in 2003.
Actors Lupita Nyong'o and Kumail Nanjiani had a message to Dreamers: "We stand with you."
Daniela Vega is the first openly transgender woman to present an Oscar.
Ten activists were on stage with Common and Andra Day during their musical performance.
Frances McDormand, in her acceptance speech, asked all the women nominees in the room to stand up.
And finally... the jet ski. (It was awarded to "Phantom Thread" costume designer Mark Bridges for the shortest speech.)
The Shape of Water, about a woman who falls in love with a sea creature, has taken the top honours at the Oscars.
Frances McDormand won best actress for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. She persuaded every female nominee to stand with her in a night full of statements about inclusion.
Shape of Water won the most Oscars with four, including best film and director.
Britain's Gary Oldman was named best actor for playing Winston Churchill in World War Two epic Darkest Hour.

Frances McDormand said the female nominees "all have stories to tell"
Putting her Oscar on the floor in front of her, McDormand addressed executives at the ceremony in one of the most powerful and symbolic moments of the night.
"Look around, ladies and gentlemen, because we all have stories to tell and projects we need financed," she said.
"Don't talk to us about it at the parties tonight - invite us into your office in a couple of days, or you can come to ours, whatever suits you best - and we'll tell you all about them."
Her request, made during her acceptance speech, came amid a push for greater equality in film - especially in the wake of the Hollywood sexual harassment scandal.

She finished her speech with the words: "I have two words to leave you with tonight - inclusion rider."
What was Frances McDorman's "inclusion rider" comment about?
Backstage, she explained that an inclusion rider is a clause that actors can put in their contracts to insist on at least 50% diversity in the film's cast and crew.
"We're not going back," she said in the winners' room.
"This whole idea of women trending? No. No trending. African Americans trending? No. No trending. It changes now, and I think the inclusion rider will have something to do with that."
McDormand, who received a rousing reception for her best actress win, played a vengeance-seeking mother who is let down by the authorities after her daughter is raped and murdered.
It's her second Oscar, 21 years after her first for Fargo.
It's Oldman's first Oscar. He mentioned his 98-year-old mother, among other people, in his acceptance speech, telling her: "Thank you for your love and support. Put the kettle on. I'm bringing Oscar home."

The Shape of Water - 4
Dunkirk - 3
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri - 2
Darkest Hour - 2
Blade Runner 2049 - 2
Coco - 2
The best picture contest had been wide open - Three Billboards had also been hotly tipped, while Get Out, a savage satire on hidden liberal racism, had a wave of late support.
In Daniel Kaluuya, Get Out also had a British actor in the lead role. It won one prize on the night - best original screenplay for its writer-director Jordan Peele.
Other British winners included former Hollyoaks actors Rachel Shenton and Chris Overton, who won best live action short film for The Silent Child, starring six-year-old Maisie Sly from Swindon.
Other notable winners included:
Allison Janney, hitherto best known for The West Wing, won best supporting actress for I, Tonya
Sam Rockwell was named best supporting actor for playing a racist policeman in Three Billboards
James Ivory, the director and writer of Merchant Ivory fame, won best adapted screenplay for Call Me By Your Name. At 89, he was born before the first Academy Awards took place
Chile's A Fantastic Woman, with an acclaimed central performance by transgender actress Daniela Vega, was named best foreign language film
Basketball superstar Kobe Bryant won best animated short for Dear Basketball - a retirement letter he wrote to the sport, which he paid veteran Disney artist Glen Keane to animate
British cinematographer Roger Deakins finally won an Oscar at the 14th attempt for Blade Runner 2049
Comedian Jena Friedman wrote: "Give it up for Gary Oldman and Kobe Bryant, for proving that men with domestic violence or sexual assault accusations can still accomplish anything."
Others, like Vice's Katherine Gillespie, retold Fiorentino's claims:
