Before Timothée Chalamet was making a killing at the box office, he was killed off on Law & Order. He gave an Oscar-worthy performance playing dead when he was 13 in that 2009 episode.
Anora won four Oscar statuettes at the Academy Awards yesterday, and most people have not seen the film. Therefore, we are curious to see what it is all about.
On March 17th, aka St. Patrick’s Day, we will be able to stream the film on Hulu, and we will see if it truly was worthy of beating Wicked or one of the other eight nominated films for Best Picture, the streamer announced today.
Sean Baker’s Palme d’Or winner ANORA is an audacious, thrilling, and comedic variation on a modern day Cinderella story. Mikey Madison (ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD) captivates as Ani, a young sex worker from Brooklyn whose life takes an unexpected turn when she meets and impulsively marries Vanya, the impetuous son of a Russian billionaire. However, when Vanya’s parents catch wind of the union, they send their henchmen to annul the marriage, setting off a wild chase through the streets of New York.
Fun fact: Sean Baker created the raunchy comedy series, Greg the Bunny. To me, that is the true Cinderella story. Once you watch it, especially the episodes that did not air on Fox, you will understand why I say that!
Cynthia Erivo opened the Oscars by singing Home from The Wiz and Defying Gravity with Ariana Grande from their nominated and should’ve won movie Wicked. Their performance gave us chills, including Grande singing Over the Rainbow from The Wizard of Oz.
As the show went on, both actresses lost in their categories, which felt like the work of the Wizard of Oz and Madame Morrible. Since Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Yeoh were there and not nominated, I am even more convinced they did. They didn’t. I think?
Anyways, when the show was over, it was time for Elpeba, who missed out on the EGOT, to get some food. Where did she go? The line for In-n-Out was too long, so the actress went to Raising Cane’s and ate some yellow wands, which are also known as French Fries.
The chicken chain never looked as classy as it did at that moment.
Hopefully, next year, she will be able to bring her date, Oscar, with her.
Yesterday, Gints Zilbalodis’s movie, Flow, won an Oscar for Best Animated Feature. By doing so, he is the first person from Latvia to bring home the gold statuette to his country.
Therefore, he has some things to celebrate! How did the director party after the Academy Awards? He went to In-N-Out! And they gave him one of their paper hats to go with his Double-Double meal.
I bet he had a better time there than with all of the other winners at one of the Oscar parties.
The Oscars first award went to Kieran Culkin for Best Supporting Actor in A Real Pain, and once again, he gave an endearing speech. However, his wife might not feel the same way.
When Culkin won his Emmy for Succession last year, he announced that his wife, Jazz Charton, would give him a third kid if he won the award.
Yesterday, when he won the Oscar, he reminded his wife of the conversation they had on the way home from his win. He told her that he really wants four kids, and she told him he could have that if he wins the Oscar.
Well, now that he is an Oscar winner, will he get his Emmy and Oscar Culkin? That is what Good Morning America’s Lara Spencer wanted to know. He told her, “We’ll never do it. Never in a million years.”
Maybe if he becomes an EGOT winner, she will give him a kid for each award! Therefore, can someone give him a spoken album to record and a part in a Broadway show so that he can bring a Grammy and a Tony?
