Well, it happened: Suicide Squad just won an Oscar. The award went to Alessandro Bertolazzi, Giorgio Gregorini, and Christopher Nelson for Best Makeup and Hairstyling. It’s unusual for a movie like Suicide Squad, which many critics found messy, if not disastrous, to be recognized at the Academy Awards, but this award often goes to the most obvious choice. And Jared Leto’s Joker was nothing if not wearing makeup.

In his acceptance speech, Bertolazzi noted that he was an Italian immigrant and said, “This is for all the immigrants.”

The movie was up against Star Trek Beyond and A Man Called Ove. This was the first Oscar win for Bertolazzi, Gregorini, and Nelson.
