WASHINGTON: Ace veteran actor Anthony Hopkins took home the Oscar for ‘Best Actor’ for his powerful performance in ‘The Father’.
This is the second time that Hopkins has won an Oscar in the Best Actor category. Earlier he had won the award for his role of Hannibal Lecter in ‘The Silence of the Lambs’. This victory has now made Hopkins the oldest ever Oscar winner. Hopkins didn’t pick up his award in person at the 93rd Academy Awards, reported People magazine.
In the film, protagonist Anthony (Hopkins) interacts with daughter Anne (Colman) and other characters who give him conflicting accounts of the past and present.
