AND The signs of the heartAmerican remake of French The Belier familythe best film ai Oscar 2022, a questionable choice that will be talked about for a long time. The film also won awards for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor to Troy Kotsur, the second deaf performer to win an Oscar after Marlee Matlin (featured in the film) for Best Actress in 1987 for Sons of a lesser god.
Continuing in the Actors category, Will Smith and Ariana DeBose win best actor and best supporting actress respectively for A winning family – King Richard And West Side Storywhile the 2022 Oscar race for best actress ends with Jessica Chastain’s victory for Tammy Faye’s eyes.
The real star of the evening, however, was the science fiction Dunes (here our review) of Villeneuve who wins 6 statuettes, for the technical categories for the best soundtrack by Hans Zimmer. Nothing to do for the Italians in the competition: in the best foreign film category, the highly rated winner Drive my car by Ryusuke Hamaguchi, while in the categories of best animated film and best costumes (our Massimo Cantini Parrini was nominated with Jacqueline Durran for Cyrano) win respectively Encanto And Cruella.
Shocking incident on the night of the 2022 Oscars, when Will Smith slapped actor and presenter Chris Rock: the latter, while presenting the award for best documentary, indulged in an unhappy joke against by Jada Pinkett-Smith, Will’s wife, referring to her alopecia. The furious husband then took the stage and gave the African-American comedian a loud slap.
