Continuing its streak through the pre-Oscar prizes, “Oppenheimer” has won the top feature-film award at the American Society of Cinematographers 38th annual ASC Awards, which took place on Sunday evening in Los Angeles.

Hoyte van Hoytema took the prize for his collaboration with director Christopher Nolan, which was shot on celluloid in both color and black and white. The acclaimed Dutch-Swedish cinematographer was previously nominated by the ASC for 2011’s “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy” and 2017’s “Dunkirk.” He is also nominated for the Oscar this season.

The win came on a weekend packed with awards shows, and one in which “Oppenheimer” had already won the top feature-film prizes from the Cinema Audio Society, Motion Picture Sound Editors and American Cinema Editors.
