And so that is a success story very much in itself. I certainly hope so, because I feel safer in a movie theater. Do you think — I mean, all your criticisms aside, the points that you're making aside, do you think that this night does change the way movies get made going forward? But I think that's a shame because that is very — seven Oscars for one movie, and for that movie, to be "Everything Everywhere," is disproportionate. I mean, that is — there's something remarkable about that. What do you make of "Everything Everywhere All at Once" sweeping so much gold last night? It was a big night for indie films overall. But best original song went to Naatu Naatu from the film "RRR." Quan won for best supporting actor. We are all descendants of something and someone. We are all products of our context.

Brendan Fraser is among nominees at the 95th Academy Awards, which are being hosted by Jimmy Kimmel.

The network is also streaming the ceremony on its website and app. Unusually, that means British viewers can watch the Oscars on Freeview and Freesat. He also paid tribute to composer John Williams, the oldest nominee in Oscars history. The Banshees of Inisherin has four acting nominations, including Colin Farrell and Kerry Condon. He most recently presided over the 2018 event. This is the American dream. Interestingly, Halle Berry has also been invited to present. "They say Hollywood is running out of ideas. At the Oscars, the World War One epic is the bookies' second favourite to take the top prize, followed by The Banshees of Inisherin. At this point, Everything Everywhere All at Once is the clear frontrunner, having won nearly every major precursor it needed to - with the notable exception of Bafta. Thank you so much for welcoming me back." Later in the ceremony, Everywhere All at Once is the favourite to win best picture after success on this year's awards' circuit.

There's another layer to the, too, and that's the Daniels saluting the legendary career of Michelle Yeoh, an actor of unusual strength, humor, and dignity.

Everything Everywhere All At Once is about accepting people for who they are and keeping your commitments. Everything Everywhere All At Once is physically, emotionally, and spiritually graceful. There’s a little bit of everything for everyone, is my point. The image of Evelyn wearing a googly eye on her forehead is absurd at first sight but deeply powerful in context. It is unsurprising because their performances were superb, and the Academy Awards is “woke,” like the Super Bowl. The movie is a parade of vibes; sometimes, those vibes don’t always… Yeoh’s Evelyn Wang is a fifty-something woman smothered by responsibilities and disappointments. [The Goonies](https://decider.com/movie/the-goonies/) and [Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom](https://decider.com/movie/indiana-jones-and-the-temple-of-doom/). I’ll bet some folks who cringe at anything they’re told is “woke” probably aren’t interested in watching a movie about a Chinese family and would have preferred one of the movie’s villains, played by the great Jamie Lee Curtis, to have played the lead instead of Michelle Yeoh. The Daniels, as EEAAO’s collaborators are cheekily known, serve up an experience that is the exact opposite of Woody Allen’s joke about two diners complaining about the terrible food and the small portions. I would imagine the anti-woke crowd would also be uncomfortable with the indie blockbuster’s view that queerness is eternal and inevitable and exists in every dimension. It is a movie that asks its audience to sit back, relax, and truly, deeply imagine living life through the eyes of someone different, to embrace another’s unique challenges while celebrating what makes them different from you and vice versa.
