During the ceremony of Oscar, Al Pacino was responsible for announcing the winner in the ‘Best Film’ category. However, the actor adopted a different format to communicate the victory of “Oppenheimer“. Thus, the reason for the change raised doubts among film lovers. Therefore, the legendary professional gave an interview to the website TMZ and explained that he only followed the orders of the Academy.
“There seems to be some controversy over the fact that I didn’t mention all of the films nominated for Best Picture last night. I just want to make it clear that it was not my intention to omit them, but rather the producers’ choice not to have the films mentioned again, as they were already highlighted individually throughout the ceremony. I felt honored to be part of the night“, he said Al Pacino.

AL PACINO ANNOUNCED VICTORY FOR “OPPENHEIMER”!
As expected by all moviegoers, “Oppenheimer” ended the Oscars 2024 as the biggest winner of the award. Thus, with seven statuettes, the film directed by Christopher Nolan stood out by winning ‘Best Film’ at the gala event. Also noteworthy is the victory of Cillian Murphy as ‘Best Actor’ and for the first triumph of Robert Downey Jr. as ‘Best Supporting Actor’.
To complete the party, Christopher Nolan won as ‘Best Director’ after shining in “Oppenheimer“. In this way, the film confirmed what was expected by winning the main awards of the night. However, the highlights didn’t stop there. This because Emma Stone won ‘Best Actress’ for her role in “Poor Creatures” and was quite emotional when she went on stage.
Those who also celebrated a lot were Cillian Murphy. In his speech with the ‘Best Actor’ statuette, he made a point of sharing the achievement with the entire cast and production of “Oppenheimer“. “It’s been the wildest, most exciting, most creatively satisfying journey you’ve taken me on in the last 20 years. I owe Nolan more than I can say. Many thanks to every team member“, he said.
