The 97th Academy Awards showcased unexpected wins, notably for the film 'Anora', which garnered five Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director for Sean Baker. This year’s ceremony felt less scripted and more spontaneous, contrasting with previous events. 'Anora,' a low-budget dramedy, broke new ground in the industry, surprising audiences and critics alike despite its unconventional script. The ceremony featured an entertaining host, Conan O'Brien, and avoided political topics, allowing for a focus on cinematic achievements, while other films like 'The Brutalist' also performed well during the night.
"For once, and hopefully this will set a precedent, there was excitement, surprise and gaping mouths. The 97th Academy Awards were not, as has been the case for years, a script written weeks in advance."
"With a script that contains the swear word fuck over 400 times and a cast of half a dozen actors who were largely unknown until now, Anora has nevertheless taken home some of the most important awards of the night."
