The 96th Academy Awards are finally here.

“Barbenheimer” is officially over. While Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” may have outdueled its release date mate by a little under $500 million at the worldwide box office, Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” has taken the most coveted award of them all, the Oscar for Best Picture.

After so many snubs and just not close enough, Christopher Nolan is finally an Oscar winner. The American-British filmmaker had earned eight nominations before the night began.
