Hannah Vanbiber makes her predictions and the odds for Sunday night's Academy Awards. Anything can be a sport if you let it.
With Sunday night's Oscars ceremony, led by first-time host Conan O'Brien, Hollywood said goodbye to another awards season. Emerging as the victor in the night's top category, Best Picture, was Sean Baker's Anora.
In a nail-biter of a race, Brody prevailed for his performance as László Toth in 'The Brutalist,' and joined a very exclusive club in the process. He also successfully stopped the orchestra from playing him off mid speech: “I've done this before.
"Anora" received Best Picture and Best Director at the 97th Academy Awards on Sunday evening, with its rising star Mikey Madison taking Best Actress.
Adrien Brody has won best actor at the 97th Academy Awards for his performance in “The Brutalist.” Sean Baker won best director, following wins for screenplay and editing for “Anora.”
In a just world, “Flow”, a charming animated movie with no dialogue from Latvia, where a cat, dog, capybara, and ring-tailed lemur try to survive in an apparently post-human world, would win the prize.
The comedian and former late-night host steps into the hot spot formerly occupied by Jimmy Kimmel, Billy Crystal and others.
"Anora," a strip club Cinderella story without the fairy tale ending, was crowned best picture at the 97th Academy Awards on Sunday, handing Sean Baker's gritty, Brooklyn-set screwball farce Hollywood's top prize.
And the Oscar(s) went to... The 2025 Academy Awards have (finally) come to an end. Sean Baker's Anora swept the night away, winning five awards, including the heavy hitting Best Picture, Best Director (Sean Baker) and Best Actress (Mikey Madison).
Though Oscars 2025 remained relatively free of controversy, a few moments stood out and captured the audience’s attention.
