Oscars 2024 Complete Winner List: The Oscars 2024 ceremony held on March 10 witnessed some expected wins, some surprises, and a few notable snubs. Among the winners, ‘Oppenheimer‘ and its director Christopher Nolan emerged as the stars of the night, securing multiple awards. However, other films like ‘Poor Things’ and ‘The Zone of Interest’ also made significant impacts, while ‘Killers of the Flower Moon‘ faced disappointment despite its critical acclaim. Let’s delve into the highlights of the night:
Surprising Wins and Memorable Moments
The evening commenced with Da’Vine Joy Randolph clinching the award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her performance in ‘The Holdovers,’ setting the tone for an unpredictable ceremony. Despite Hayao Miyazaki’s absence, ‘The Boy and the Heron’ secured the Oscar for Best Animated Feature, adding another feather to its illustrious cap.
One of the most unexpected moments arrived when John Cena, in a surprising twist, announced ‘Poor Things’ as the winner for Best Costume Design, accompanied by a bit of unexpected nudity. The night also saw poignant speeches, notably from Jonathan Glazer, the writer and director of ‘The Zone of Interest,’ who drew attention to the film’s thematic relevance to the Gaza conflict.
Robert Downey Jr.’s win for Best Supporting Actor for his role in ‘Oppenheimer’ may have raised a few eyebrows, but it was a moment of delight as the creative team of ‘Godzilla Minus One’ brought their action figures on stage to receive the award for Best Visual Effects.
Triumph of Poor Things
As the ceremony progressed, it became evident that ‘Poor Things’ captured the hearts of the Academy, dominating several categories including Makeup and Hairstyling, Production Design, and Best Actress, where Emma Stone secured her second Oscar. Despite tough competition from ‘Killers of the Flower Moon,’ Stone’s stellar performance stood out, solidifying ‘Poor Things’ as a major winner of the night.
Oppenheimer Reigns Supreme
However, the ultimate victor of the night was ‘Oppenheimer,’ directed by Christopher Nolan, which swept several prestigious categories including Cinematography, Original Score, Best Actor, and Best Director. Cillian Murphy’s portrayal in the lead role contributed to the film’s triumph, reaffirming Nolan’s prowess as a master storyteller.
