“It’s a great honor, it took 20 years for this film, I contributed the last 10,” said George Lanthimos.”We made a very British film, the case is very British,” commented Giorgos Lanthimos, speaking to Reuters. “It’s great because my colleagues are also recognized, and that’s why I’m very proud,” he added.

 

 

Alfonso Cuaron’s “Roma,” which centers on the nanny to a middle-class Mexico City family, took prizes for best picture, director, cinematography and foreign-language film.
