Oscar winner
Statuette's proud recipient
Oscar winner refers to someone who has received an Academy Award, the film industry's most prestigious honor.
The term applies to actors, directors, writers, and other filmmakers: She's a two-time Oscar winner.
It often functions as a credential or marketing label: Oscar winner Meryl Streep stars in the new drama.
Extended loosely, it can describe anything that seems worthy of the highest recognition: That excuse was an Oscar winner.
