In the final major awards show of the season, "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" signalled that it is still a major frontrunner for top prizes at the Oscars. The controversial Martin McDonagh film won an impressive 5 awards, including Best Picture, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Screenplay. Following behind is the other presumed frontrunner "The Shape of Water" with 3 wins, with Guillermo del Toro virtually securing a Best Director win next month. In many other categories however, the Oscar is still up in the air.
