Academy Awards 2023: everything, everywhere and all at once

Academy Awards 2023: everything, everywhere and all at once

In the vast swath of the multiverse, we now know which branch of reality we live in: the one where All everywhere at once balaie les Oscars, prenant le best film, réalisant pour Daniels (également connu under the noms de Daniel Kwan et Daniel Scheinert), principal actrice pour Michelle Yeoh, acteur de soutien pour Ke Huy Quan, actress de soutien pour Jamie Lee Curtis, et plus Still. Yes, the duo behind Swiss army man (Daniel Radcliffe’s farted corpse film) and the video “Turn Down For What” are now Oscar winners. The film took home seven awards during the evening, gaining popularity towards the end of the ceremony, winning the categories of Best Editing and Original Screenplay.

The stage was filled with doe-eyed pins and heartfelt speeches as Daniels and the team went to collect their trophies. “You all inspired me,” Daniel Kwan told the assembled crowd. “One of the best things we can do for each other is protect ourselves from the crazy chaos.” Taking to the stage to accept her lead actress award, Michelle Yeoh said her award went to “all the little boys and girls that look like me watching tonight,” adding, “Dreams do come true. Ladies, don’t let no one tells you that you are already past your prime.”

At the beginning of the evening, Ke Huy Quan gave a very emotional speech on winning the supporting role award. “My journey started on a boat,” she said. “I spent a year in a refugee camp and found myself here on the biggest stage in Hollywood. They say stories like this only happen in movies. I can’t believe this is happening to me. It’s the American Dream!” He also thanked “my Goonies brother for life, Jeff Cohen”. Soon after, Jamie Lee Curtis won Best Supporting Actress. NO. I follow hundreds of people,” she said, shouting out to her aides and loved ones, including the Daniels and “my baby, Michelle.”

Once again, Brendan Fraser’s return was assured when he pocketed the lead actor The whale. “So this is what the multiverse looks like!” she said holding up the award, with tears in her eyes. While everywhere won the most awards of the night, it was a great night too Quiet on the west facade, winning four trophies: international feature film, soundtrack, set design and photography. “It means a lot to us,” director Edward Berger said while compiling International Feature, thanking its star Felix Kammerer in particular. “It was your first film and you carried us on your shoulders as if nothing had happened. Without you, none of us would be here.”

While The whale won two awards (Makeup and Hair, as well as a win for Brendan Fraser), has been elsewhere as well, and the other award-winning films received a trophy each. Sarah Polley adapted the screenplay for women talking (“I want to thank the Academy for not being mortally offended by the words ‘Women’ and ‘Talk’ being so close,” she joked.) Avatar: the path of water deserved recognition for the visual effects. Top Gun: nonconformist picked up the sound, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever won costumes for the work of Ruth E. Carter, e Pinocchio by Guillermo del Toro has risen to the top of the animated film.

There was also a win for RRR – who won the original song award for the fan favorite “Naatu Naatu” who gave an extraordinarily energetic performance on stage during the show. Indeed, there were great musical interludes throughout the concert, with Lady Gaga giving a moving and essential performance. Dissident “Hold My Hand” ballad, David Byrne putting his hands on a hot dog EEAAAO song ‘This Is A Life’, and Rihanna appears for a ghostly ride on ‘Lift Me Up’ by wakanda forever, dedicated to Chadwick Boseman. Additionally, the audience sang “Happy Birthday” to lead James Martin from the Academy Award-winning live-action short. an Irish goodbyeduring his winning speech.

It meant no wins for Austin Butler, Steven Spielberg or Cate Blanchett and, perhaps the biggest surprise, no wins for The Banshees of Inisherin. Colin Farrell seemed to have won, however, when Jenny The Donkey took the stage, the actor beaming at his furry co-star. For more on the night’s craziest moments, from an appearance by Cocaine Bear to a heartwarming John Travolta hosting In Memoriam segment, to Jimmy Kimmel’s “skydiving” on stage, read EmpireThe live blog of the ceremony.

But if there’s one thing to take away from this year’s Oscars, it’s something as bold and brilliant and full of buttplugs as All everywhere at once managed to win big on the starliest night in Hollywood: a beloved film, but far from typical Oscar fare, not released in the usual Oscar window, and a decidedly genre-focused work. And finally, it offered recognition for its predominantly Asian cast, leading to belated but groundbreaking wins. Every multiversal reality is celebrating right now.
