Four Oscars, including Best Picture for Green Book, for Leone Film Group

A Monday morning filled with satisfaction for Leone Film Group: the company's acquired and distributed films garnered four statuettes at the 91st Academy Awards ceremony, including the most coveted and important one, Best Picture, awarded to Green Book, Peter Farrelly's feel-good movie, which is already a box office hit. Green Book received 3 awards in total: in addition to Best Picture, Best Original Screenplay (Brian Currie, Peter Farrelly, and Nick Vallelonga) and Best Supporting Actor (Mahershala Ali). An Oscar also went to another Leone Film Group title, Adam McKay's Vice, which received the statuette for Best Makeup and Hairstyling (Greg Cannom, Kate Biscoe, and Patricia Dehaney).
