Mexican filmmaker Alfonso Cuarón won three Oscars on Sunday for his famous autobiographical film "Rome", but "Green Book" prevented the celebration from completing by winning the Best Film Award.

The controversial film about the journey of the famous pianist negDon Shirley and his white driver Tony "Lip" Vallelonga in the southern United States in the 1960s, in full segregation, He won the Oscar for best film.

"It's a story of love, to love each other despite our differences and to find the truth about who we are", said the director of the "Green Book", Peter Farrelly, at the reception of the statuette.

"Roma" was one of eight nominees for the best film, a category in which no production spoken in a language other than English has been won.

This Sunday, at an Oscar celebrating diversity, this triumph would have ended changing history.

"I would like to thank the Academy for recognizing a film focused on an indigenous woman, one of the 70 million domestic workers without labor rights in the world, a character who has always been relegated to the cinema", Cuarón said at the reception of the hands of his compatriot Guillermo del Toro the prize for the direction.

"As artists, our job is to look where others do not feel, this responsibility becomes all the more important as they tell us to look away."

"Rome" tells the story of the two women who have marked the childhood of the director: her mother, who is separating from her husband, and a pregnant young domestic worker after her first badual experiences.

It is a deep portrait of the conflicts and social hierarchies of the turbulent Mexico of the 1970s.

Netflix also wins its first Oscars in important categories. The streaming giant has many detractors by his scheme to focus on distribution on the Internet and very limited in the cinemas.

The Oscar winners closed with four statuettes for "Bohemian Rhapsody", including one received by Rami Malek for his incarnation of the leader of the group Queen Freddie Mercury.

"Thank you Queen, thank you for allowing me to do the smallest part of your phenomenal and extraordinary heritage, I will always be grateful."said Malek moved to Brian May and Roger Taylor, who opened the gala on stage accompanied by the voice of Adam Lambert.

The film also won the award for editing and mixing sound and editing.

"Green Paper" took three: Original screenplay and supporting actor for Mahershala Ali, who sat as Don Shirley in the back seat of the vehicle driven by Viggo Mortensen as Vallelonga.

"Just trying to grasp the essence of Dr. Shirley has brought me to my limits, which was a reflection of the person I was and the life that he lived, and I thank him "said Ali, winner in the same category in 2017 for "Moonlight".

A surprise was Olivia Colman's triumph in the category of best actress, which "oscarólogos" took for granted Glenn Close.

Regina King was honored as best supporting actress in "The Blues of Beale Street", which received three nominations.

The 91st edition of the Oscar, which for the first time in 30 years did not have a host, had a lot of Spanish.

"Thank you very much to Libo"Cuarón said in reference to the nanny in whom he inspired the story. "A big thank you to Mexico and, most of all, thanks to [mis hijos] Jonah, Bu and Olmo. "

Diego Luna, in charge of presenting the "Roma" nominated, celebrated: "You can already speak Spanish at the Oscars "," they opened the door and no one took us out ".

"There are no borders, there are no walls that prevent ingenuity and talent"said Spanish Javier Bardem at the foreign film award ceremony. "In every region of every country, on every continent of the world, stories touch us and tonight we celebrate the excellence and importance of the language of different countries. "

And the actor Maya Rudolph, that he announced together Amy Poehler and Tina Fey the first prize, he said, in English, that "Mexico will not pay for the wall " proposed by Donald Trump at the border.

Veteran director Spike Lee has taken advantage of the speech given for his first Oscar, adapted scenario, to talk about his ancestors slaves and the political scene, very present in his film.

"The presidential elections of 2020 are on our doorstep, we will mobilize, to be on the right side of history, make the moral choice between love and hate"said Republican President Donald Trump's detractor.
