Los Angeles, March 28, 2022 – E’ Ariana DeBose the first Oscar 2022. “A Queer girl, a gay girl is here and celebrates: there is a place for us, there is a place for everyone”. She goes to her the statuette as best supporting actress for her Anita in her “West Side Story”. It was an Oscar announced: his performance in the remake of the Spielberg musical alone illuminates the film; singer, dancer DeBose, 31 years old, activist of the LGBT + communities and Afrolatine wins in the same role in which she won at her same age, 60 years between, Rita Moreno who is now among the producers of the blockbuster. Ariana collects the award by citing the famous song that she sings herself in the film: “That’s why they say ‘I want to be in America’. Because in this crazy world, dreams can still be made.” The evening had been open since Beyoncé, nominated for the song from the movie ‘King Richard’ about the Williams sisters. Still according to predictions, it goes to Troy Kotsur the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for “Coda: the signs of the heart”: the hall applauds raising his hands, he – deaf – thanks with sign language: “This Oscar goes to the disabled community, this is our time” . G.early in the evening “Dune” takes home three technical Oscars: sound, photography, special effects, “Charm” is obviously the best cartoon.
The three conductors
The three conductors Regina Hall, Amy Schumer e Wanda Sykes set the show in the name of rhythm, lightness and sarcasm. Sykes-the veteran of the three-puts one line after another: “The Academy chose three women because they still cost less than a single man”, “Congratulations to Jane Campion, I saw her film once and I’m already almost halfway “. Also Amy Schumer guesses his: “Finally after so many years here in Hollywood a film about two great women, the Williams sisters, in fact the protagonist is their father Will Smith”, “Thanks to Leonardo DiCaprio who is doing so much to leave a better planet to his girlfriends “. It is the crackling start, then we go to prizes, and celebrations, first of all the very “vintage” one of the sixty years of the 007 saga.n waiting for the moment dedicated toUkraine. “It will be an honest and heartfelt space, how these difficult moments have to be handled,” said Regina Hall and Wanda Skyes, two of the three presenters of the ‘night of the stars’, at the New York Times. The question of Zelensky’s video intervention at the ceremony is however the one that is monopolizing the US media in these hours: again according to the New York Times the Ukrainian president would have expressly put pressure on the top of the Academy to be able to speak live during the show, while Sean Penn would have already announced that a possible censorship of this intervention “would represent the blackest page in the history of Hollywood” and that his reaction will be to “set fire to and melt” his two Oscars in protest. Apart from the Zelensky stone guest, the spotlight obviously remains on the films. And on the red carpet, which Paolo Sorrentino faces by showing off a blue pin with the words ‘With refugees’.
Il red carpet
The first stars to win the style Oscar on the red carpet are already Timothée Chalamet in a black suit, with a glitter-flooded jacket that nonchalantly reveals the Damiano model of the Maneskin shirtless, and a stunning Zendaya in a long silver glitter skirt and white silk top. Kristen Stewart is super sexy in very short black shorts and a very low-cut white shirt; Andrew Garfield romantic: dark red velvet jacket, black shirt with bow in the style of anarchists. And then Judi Dench: 87, nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her extraordinary role as Kenneth Branagh’s grandmother in ‘Belfast’, the lady is unreachable, an all-white monument of grace and nobility. Kirsten Dunst (with her husband Jesse Plemons, both candidates for ‘Dog Power’) and Ariana DeBose shine in red: the former in a long classic, the latter geometric and deconstructed, bubbly (“Valentino”, she emphasizes). Long reds also Marlee Matlin and Jennifer Garner, beautiful in pink Jessica Chastain and Zoe Kravitz. Billie Eilish is all black: black hair (no longer blond) black the draped curtain dress in which she hides, or almost. All blue Nicole Kidman with an unlikely 1950s puff dress, a tribute (perhaps not very successful) to the queen of TV comedy Lucille Ball whose interpretation in ‘The Ricardos’ led her to the umpteenth nomination for best protagonist. The Cruz-Bardem couple is a dream, while Will Smith-Jada Pinkett reports (to the hairdresser).
