Bradly cooper was brilliant in both acting and directing , I definitely think this is his best work. I thought he should've won best directing but he wasn't even nominated. Secondly , As good as lady gaga was , she definitely didn't deserve winning best actress. there were so many other actresses in other movies that were simply better. Makes me think these awards weren't given for "the best" like they used to but instead given to the most popular person on set. Not the best year for the oscars. English isn't my first language excuse me for any mistakes
