Iñárritu, Giacobone, Dinelaris, Jr. and Bo win the Oscar for best original screenplay for Birdman. Iñárritu:

The journey of ‘Birdman’ started three years ago when I asked Nico, Alexander and Armando to follow me in a crazy idea, and because they are crazy we did it and we wrote ‘Birdman’ together, and for that I am all my life grateful and thankful for that and to share this experience with them.
