Anora sweeps the board at the Oscars

Anora was the big winner at the Oscars, winning five awards including best actress for breakout star Mikey Madison, and a record-breaking four prizes for its director Sean Baker.

The whirlwind drama stars relative newcomer Madison as a New York stripper who falls in love with the son of a wealthy Russian.

She held off competition from Demi Moore, and described winning the best actress Oscar as a "dream come true".

Baker became the first person to personally win four Academy Awards for a single film - for directing, editing, writing and producing Anora.

In her speech, 25-year-old Madison said: "This is very surreal. I grew up in Los Angeles but Hollywood always felt so far away from me, so to be here standing in this room today is really incredible."

She added: "I want to honour and recognise the sex worker community. I will continue to support and be an ally... the women I've had the privilege of meeting from that community has been one of the highlights of this entire incredible experience."

The best director trophy was presented by Quentin Tarantino, who previously cast Madison in a small role in his film Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.

Accepting the trophy from Tarantino, Baker told him: "If you didn't cast Mikey Madison... there'd be no Anora."

Baker went on to thank the Academy voters for "recognising a truly independent film", and used his best director speech to champion cinemas.

"Where did we fall in love with movies? At the movie theatres," Baker said. "Watching a film in a theatre with an audience is an experience.

"And at a time when the world can feel very divided, this is more important than ever, it's a communal experience you just don't get at home.
