"Spotlight", a newspaper drama about the Catholic church's cover-up of child sex abuse, was today the surprise top winner at the 88th Academy Awards that was dominated by the diversity debate with host Chris Rock taking on Hollywood over racism in a biting monologue.
	"The Revenant", which was widely expected to clinch the best picture trophy, lost it to "Spotlight" but earned its lead star Leonardo DiCaprio, 41, the best actor Oscar, two decades after his first nomination.
	Its helmer Alejandro G Inarritu made history by becoming the first director since 1950 to repeat his win at Oscars. He won last year for "The Birdman".
