Iñárritu is the third director to accomplish this feat.[5]

In 2006, González Iñárritu was honored at the Gotham Awards' World Cinema Tribute, alongside fellow Mexican filmmakers Alfonso Cuarón and Guillermo del Toro.[6] In June 2015, González Iñárritu received the Sundance Institute's Vanguard Leadership Award for the "originality and independent spirit" of his films.[7] In November 2015, he was honored by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art at its Art + Film Gala.[8]
