Even though it feels like we were just watching “Oppenheimer” sweep and Billie Eilish’s “Barbie” track was making us weep, it’s time for another Academy Awards.
Even though it feels like we were just watching “Oppenheimer” sweep and Billie Eilish’s “Barbie” track was making us weep, it’s time for another Academy Awards. First-time Oscar host Conan O’Brien has already rolled out the red carpet in Los Angeles, and our snacks are already planned out (Wicked wings of the west, anyone?). With one day to go, here’s everything you need to know as we gear up for Hollywood’s biggest night. Going into the evening, Netflix’s drug cartel musical “Emilia Pérez” leads with 13 nominations, followed by “The Brutalist” and “Wicked” with 10 each. The odds for “Emilia Pérez” have tanked in recent weeks after the fallout from star Karla Sofía Gascón’s offensive social media comments, which effectively derailed her history-making Oscar campaign and severely hurt the movie’s chances of taking home gold in any major category except best supporting actress. Costar Zoe Saldaña is considered a frontrunner in that category. “The Brutalist,” from director Brady Corbet, stars Adrien Brody and Felicity Jones as Hungarian refugees who come to the US after WWII. The film, which won big at the Golden Globes, was previously embroiled in controversy over its use of artificial intelligence in dialect, with Corbet giving an assertive defense of his performers amid the debate. The film picked up four awards at the recent BAFTA Film Awards, including best director and best actor. However, it lost best film to papal thriller “Conclave.”
