Tonight (live in Italy on Sky Uno, NOW and Tv8 starting at 11.15 pm for the red carpet and from 1 am with the award ceremony) the 95th edition of the Oscars will be staged in the historic Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. Hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, actor, comedian and presenter.
Who will win? Favorite Everything Everywhere All at Once , the sci-fi comedy about the crazy metaverse adventure of washerwoman Evelyn Wang (Michelle Yeoh) and her family. According to insiders, the Best Film statuette will go to the film by the visionaries Daniel (Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert), which comes with eleven nominations and a poker of victories in the category awards (producers, directors, actors and screenwriters).
According to Variety, the surprise could come from Top Gun: Maverick while the Hollywood Reporter and Deadline focus on the German Edward Berger's All Quiet on the Western Front . The other candidate films are Tár, Elvis, The Fabelmans, Island Spirits, Triangle of Sadness, Women Talking – The right to choose, Avatar: The Waterway.
Austin Butler (for Elvis) challenges for the title of Best Actor Brendan Fraser of The Whale, but Colin Farrell of Island Spirits could play the third wheel. The others: Paul Mescal (Aftersun), Bill Nighy (Living).
Again for Everything Everywhere, the statuette for Ke Huy Quan for Best Supporting Actor at this point also seems obvious for the human factor (escaped from Vietnam in flames, former child actor in the Goonies and Indiana Jones back on track after years of coordination of stunt performers) . The others: Brendan Gleeson (Island Spirits), Brian Tyree Henry (Causeway), Judd Hirsch (The Fabelmans), Barry Keoghan (Island Spirits).
The winner for Best Actress was less obvious with the duel between Michelle Yeoh (if she won, she would be the first Asian woman and the second black woman) and Cate Blanchett of Tar : the latter in the role of an orchestra leader ignominously chased from the podium . The others: Ana De Armas (Blonde), Andrea Riseborough (To Leslie), Michelle Williams (The Fabelmans).
