‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’: SXSW’s First World Premiere To Win Oscar’s Best Picture

Best Picture Oscar winner Everything Everywhere All at Once and superhero series The Boys topped the list of winners for the third annual Critics Choice Super Awards.

In an awards season dominated by Oscars rules discussion and the multiversal “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” the night is finally here. And guess what? Everything went just about as expected.

The soft pink and beige background on the red carpet of this year’s Oscars ceremony echoed the generally much more mellow tone of the evening than we have been used to in the recent past. If last year’s event was one of the most disjointed and chaotic in years, the 2023 evening hosted by Jimmy Kimmel was reassuringly smooth sailing, starting with a (for my money) genuinely funny and charming opening set of jokes.

In at least one universe, “Everything Everywhere All at Once” is a Best Picture winner!

Celebrities from far and wide flocked to Los Angeles for this year's highly anticipated Oscars on Sunday night, from Rihanna and Cara Delevingne to Florence Pugh and Lady Gaga, with Jimmy Kimmel hosting the star-studded affair this year. It's been a busy awards season this year, with Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Whale, The Banshees of Inisherin and Tár proving as some of the critics' favourites.

Katie Reul editor Winning best picture at the Academy Awards, “Everything Everywhere All at Once” capped off a ground-breaking awards season and became the most-awarded best picture winner since 2008’s “Slumdog Millionaire.” “Everything Everywhere” took home seven Oscars on Sunday night, including best picture, director, original screenplay, lead actress, supporting actress, supporting actor and editing. At the 2009 Oscars, Danny Boyle’s “Slumdog Millionaire” scored eight awards, including best picture, director, adapted screenplay, cinematography, editing, score, original song and sound mixing. Before “Everything Everywhere,” the closest a best picture winner has gotten to topping that number was the 2010 ceremony, when “The Hurt Locker” won six Oscars.

Clayton Davis Senior Awards Editor The victory of “Everything Everywhere All at Once” at the 95th Oscars on Sunday is a milestone for Asian talent in front of and behind the camera. It’s also a sign that the Academy Awards is unafraid to make bold, unconventional bets and to embrace a movie that, on paper, could not be farther removed from typical Oscar bait. And yet the A24 film walked away with the most Oscars with seven, including statues for best picture, director and original screenplay for Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, actress for Michelle Yeoh, supporting actress for Jamie Lee Curtis and supporting actor Ke Huy Quan. This marked A24’s second best picture win since the stunning upset of “Moonlight” (2016) over “La La Land,” also known as “envelope gate.”

Everything Everywhere All at Once is the big winner of the night!

is a Best Picture winner!The lauded absurdist film took home the top honor at the 95th Academy Awards on Sunday, following wins earlier in the night for Jamie Lee Curtis's Best Supporting Actress, Ke Huy Quan's Best Supporting Actor, Michelle Yeoh's Best Actress, Best Original Screenplay, the Daniels' Best Director and Best Editing. «There is no movie without our brilliant and big-hearted cast and crew,» producer Jonathan Wang said. «I never thought I would get to say this, so I say this with one voice: Thank you to the Academy.» Wang went on to dedicate the win to his wife, quoting one of his film's most famous lines, «In another life, I would have really liked doing laundry and taxes with you.» The film now holds the most Oscars of all time, and is the first film in over three decades to win three acting Academy Awards. The Daniels gave similarly moving speeches when accepting Best Director. «Our fellow nominees, our nominees in this category, you guys are our heroes,» Daniel Scheinert said.

Everything Everywhere All At Once completed its awards-season victory march on Sunday night, taking home seven trophies at the 95th annual Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

The grand prize. Everything Everywhere All at Once won Best Picture at the 2023 Oscars on Sunday, March 12.

With its win for Best Film Editing on Sunday, “Everything Everywhere All At Once” became the first comedy to score this statuette in an astonishing 34 years — since 1988’s “Who Framed Roger Rabbit.”Editor Paul Rogers’ deft handling of multiverses is likely what garnered his work more votes from the Academy than his competition: “Elvis,” “Top Gun: Maverick,” “The Banshees of Inisherin” and “Tár.” But at its heart, “EEAAO” is still, despite a heartwarming plot thread about the power or family, an outlandish, overt comedy, complete with hot dog fingers, magical bagels and a racoon-meets-Ratatouille subplot. A mere glance at winners in this category proves the extraordinary rarity of this victory.

presented Best Screenplay together at the previous Oscars, in 1991.In terms of Oscar history, this particular achievement by “EEAAO” is not unprecedented. After all, classics such as 1972’s “The Godfather,” 1977’s “Annie Hall” and 1969’s “Midnight Cowboy” were released in March, April, and May, respectively, of the years before they won Best Picture.

It’s crowning achievement almost inevitable for weeks, “Everything Everywhere All At Once” was named Best Picture at the 95th Academy Awards. Directed, written and produced by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, who also twon Oscars earlier in the telecast, the film also makes history as A24 Films second Best Picture winner in just 12 years.

In the first big surprise of the night, Jamie Lee Curtis won for her role in “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” She was nominated alongside her co-star Stephanie Hsu, Kerry Condon for “The Banshees of Inisherin,” Angela Bassett for “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” and Hong Chau for “The Whale.” It was one of the most competitive categories, and Bassett, in particular, had long been considered to be the favorite as she had given a showstopping monologue that emerged as one of the best moments of her entire film.

Jamie Lee Curtis won her first Oscar on Sunday night during the 95th Academy Awards. The win comes after the 64-year-old earned the first nomination in her 45-year-long career for her role in . Curtis beat out Angela Bassett (), Hong Chau (), Kerry Condon () and co-star Stephanie Hsu to take home the trophy for Best Supporting Actress. «I know it looks like I'm standing up here by myself, but I am not.

The Academy doesn’t always get it right, according to the critics.

Hollywood Reporter survey found that a majority would like to go back and change their 1977 votes for “Rocky” to “All the President’s Men.” And looking back at 1999, if they had to do it all over again, they’d give the gold to war epic “Saving Private Ryan” instead of the largely-forgotten “Shakespeare in Love.” But there have been a lot more recipients of Hollywood’s highest honor that have fallen out of favor — and sometimes in epic fashion. Here are 11 examples of Best Picture winners that probably wouldn’t win the award in 2023 — that is, if they were even green-lighted in the first place.

The Oscars is the greatest promotional event ever created for movies, and this year there’s a lot worth promoting. The 2022 crop of Best Picture nominees offer something for everyone, from action-packed blockbusters like Top Gun: Maverick and Avatar: The Way of Water to the obligatory musical biopic featuring a standout lead performance to more challenging fare like Tár and Everything Everywhere All At Once.

The Academy Awards are nearly upon us.
