The Hurt Locker director Kathryn Bigelow has made history at this year’s Oscars, becoming the first woman to win an Academy Award for best director. Her film has also been named Best Picture.
Bigelow’s film follows the dangerous daily existence of a US Army bomb squad. It earned six Oscars in total on the night, including one for Mark Boal’s original screenplay, which was based on his time as a journalist embedded with such a unit.
“There is no other way to describe it – it’s the moment of a lifetime,” Bigelow said.
