JAKARTA - Jane Campion was named best director for the Academy Award for her film The Power of Dog, becoming the third woman in the 94-year history of the Oscars to take home the trophy in that category, Sunday, March 27 local time.
The New Zealand director follows in the footsteps of Kathryn Bigelow and Chloe Zhao as the award-winning woman in directing, a field still dominated by men in Hollywood.
Quoted from ANTARA, this 67-year-old director was nominated for the 1993 film "The Piano". The director's award at that time went to Steven Spielberg who directed "Schindler's List", but she won the Oscar for best original screenplay.

No woman other than Campion has been nominated for best director more than once. She recently described herself as "the grandmother in the women's movement on film."
"Power of the Dog" is a revenge story set in 1925 Montana and based on the 1967 novel by Thomas Savage. Set in New Zealand, the film stars Benedict Cumberbatch as a ranch owner who intends to torture his brother's new wife, played by Kirsten Dunst.
This is Campion's first film since 2009. Most recently he has worked on television content, writing the drama series "Top of the Lake".
