And director Jordan Peele clearly couldn’t have been happier about it. After _Get Out_ scored nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay and Best Actor (Daniel Kaluuya), Peele took to Twitter to express his excitement about the movie’s Oscar recognition. Peele and _Lady Bird_ director Greta Gerwig are the fifth-ever black director and fifth-ever female director, respectively, to be nominated for Best Director. Peele began by sharing a GIF of Kaluuya’s character Chris crying. “What’s the opposite of the Sunken Place?” he added. He went on to describe his reaction to hearing the news. “I just spoke to Daniel. You know when you’re on the phone trying to disguise the sound of an ugly cry? I failed at that,” he wrote. “Right now I’m just thinking about everyone who bought a ticket and told someone else to. You did this. Thank you.” > [](https://twitter.com/JordanPeele/status/955801227995971585) > [](https://twitter.com/JordanPeele/status/955807529161801728) > [](https://twitter.com/JordanPeele/status/955809063412969473) > [](https://twitter.com/JordanPeele/status/955811212666716160) ## Transcript Here are the nine films selected as Best Picture nominees.
