96th Academy Awards (2024)
what a night!
The 96th Academy Awards, affectionately known as the Oscars, brought its A-game this year. Hosted by the ever-charming Jimmy Kimmel, the show kicked off with a monologue that was both celebratory and politely humorous. The night was filled with feel-good moments, from Messi, the canine star of Anatomy of a Fall, to Da Vine Joy Randolph's emotional acceptance speech (cue a tearful Paul Giamatti). Oppenheimer, with its impressive 13 nominations, didn't quite break the record, but still snagged seven awards, including Best Picture. And let's not forget the completely nude John Cena and a Kentastic Ryan Gosling performance. All in all, a solid Oscars presentation that focused on the craft of filmmaking.
