Oscars 2023: relive the coronation of “Everything, everywhere all at once” and all the highlights

The Oscars can be conventional but also hold a few surprises. Viewers of the 95th ceremony were able to see two animals on stage. As the Best Visual Effects Oscar winner was announced, Elizabeth Banks took the stage with an actor in a crude bear costume, a reference to her film Cocaïne Bear, to remind us of the importance of good special effects in cinema. A donkey, very real this time, is also on stage, in reference to the film The Banshees of Inisherin.

Before the Oscars ceremony, Hugh Grant responded to an interview with Ashley Graham which did not fail to react on social networks. A misunderstanding was born when the British comedian mentioned the novel Vanity Fair released in 1848 and which the American model believed that it evoked the evening of Vanity Fair which follows the event. Unfortunately, the exchange continued to be difficult to watch as the actor began to respond sporadically, admitting that he had no predictions on the night’s winners, that he was “only wearing a costume”, and that he did not keep a memorable memory of his shooting of Glass Onion. At least it amused the Internet users!

Some big favorites from the 95th Academy Awards nevertheless left empty-handed this Sunday evening. This is the case of The Fabelmans which won no award, not even Best Direction for Steven Spielberg. This is the second year in a row that the filmmaker has been snubbed by the Academy, since his remake of West Side Story only won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress last year. The Banshees of Inisherin, who had 9 nominations in total, also left empty-handed. Cate Blanchett was also a big favorite for the Oscar for Best Actress, for her portrayal of the tortured conductor of Tar. While she was crowned in all the other award ceremonies at the start of the year, she was nevertheless upstaged at the Oscars by Michelle Yeoh. Elvis by Baz Luhrmann also failed to win any awards, just like Without filter. Top Gun Maverik et Avatar: The Way of the Water had to content themselves with a citation, one for Best Sound, the other for Best Visual Effects.

Ke Huy Quan won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in Everything, everywhere, all at once this Sunday. But before this triumphant return, the 51-year-old comedian is a child actor. We have seen it in particular in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom facing Harrison Ford (whom he hugged at the Oscars) or in The Goonies. The American actor of Vietnamese origin, however, experienced a slump after his success as a child star, before his resounding and acclaimed return to Everything, everywhere all at once.

They made us dream Four weddings and a funeral. Hugh Grant and Andie MacDowell were both present on the Oscars stage this Sunday, March 12, 2023 to present the trophy for best decor, awarded to the film In the west, nothing is new. The duo caused a sensation on the Dolby Theater stage, the British actor not failing to show this delicious English humor of which he alone has the secret: “We are here for two things, he declared in his introductory speech, before handing out the award. One of them is to remind people of the crucial importance of a good moisturizer. Andie has applied one every day for 29 years. I have never used one. She’s still gorgeous. Me, I basically look like a scrotum.”

Ke Huy Quan won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his touching portrayal in the film Everything, everywhere all at once. When receiving his prize, the actor could not hold back his tears and once again seduced the assembly with his candor and natural sincerity: “Mom, I won an Oscar!” he let go, between two sobs, on the stage of the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, to the applause of the public.

And Everything, everywhere all at once is the big winner of the Oscars 2023 with seven awards, In the west, nothing is new follows closely, with 4 prizes won. But where to see this German war film? All you need is a subscription to the Netflix streaming platform to catch up on this feature film. It is not streamed on any other platform, as it is an original production.

Jamie Lee Curtis won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Everything, everywhere all at once. But on social networks, this victory is far from unanimous. Many Internet users would have preferred that Angela Bassett (Wakanda Forever) or Stephanie Hsu (Everything, everywhere, all at once) win in this category. “Jamie Lee Curtis was no better than Angela Bassett, that’s crazy,” tweeted one of the ceremony attendees. “I had forgotten that Jamie Lee Curtis was in Everything, everywhere all at once, maybe it would have been better to reward her for the rest of her career and give this award to Stephanie Hsu”, writes another. Others call for temperance, recalling that Jamie Lee Curtis is “a great actress”.
