Everything Everywhere All at Once took home the biggest prize at the 2023 Oscars, held live at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday evening local time. In addition to Best Picture, the uber-creative film nabbed six more awards, crowning Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert as the best directors and original screenwriters of the year. India scored a double win at the ceremony, with RRR's ‘Naatu Naatu' emerging as the Best Original Song of the year, whilst also stealing the spotlight with a live performance on stage. Composer M.M. Keeravani and lyricist Chandrabose accepted the award, defeating heavyweights ranging from Rihanna's ‘Lift Me Up' to Lady Gaga's 'Hold My Hand.' Kartiki Gonsalves' directorial debut The Elephant Whisperers won the award for Best Documentary Short Subject at the 95th Academy Awards.
Hopping across multiple dimensions, and offering unique images of a traditional Chinese-American mother, Michelle Yeoh was named the Best Actress, triumphing over Cate Blanchett's commanding performance in Tár. Adding to Everything Everywhere All at Once's trophy display were Ke Huy Quan and Jamie Lee Curtis as Best Supporting Actor and Actress, respectively. The film also secured a trophy in the editing category at the 2023 Oscars. Brendan Fraser winning the award for Best Actor was another key highlight from the event, reclaiming his position in mainstream Hollywood with his emotionally-scarring portrayal of an obese, 600-pound (272 kg) man in The Whale. Clearly, production company A24 is enjoying a good year.
The German anti-war epic All Quiet on the Western Front was deemed as the Best International Feature Film this year, beating out critical-darling Argentina, 1985. The Best Picture winner at the BAFTAs last month also earned trophies for Best Cinematography and Best Production Design at the 2023 Oscars. James Cameron's much-delayed sci-fi sequel Avatar: The Way of Water rightfully took the prize for Best Visual Effects, while continuing to revel in the no. 3 spot among the highest-grossing movies of all time.
