Why Didn't They Pick Me to Choose the Oscar Winners?

What did you think of the 97th Academy Awards? Here's what I did. //Join me on Patreon:   / moviewise   //Follow me on Twitter: https://x.com/MrMoviewise Sean Baker's "Anora" was the big winner with 5 wins out of 6 nominations (I wonder if Yura Borisov is feeling left out). "The Brutalist" did fine with 3 wins, including Best Actor; "Wicked: Part I" (stop trying to fool me, world! That's the title!) and everybody's favorite "Emilia Pérez" won 2 awards each. In this video I'll go through every feature category (except Animated Feature) to deliver my brief opinions on the winners and say which nominee I would have chosen instead. It's an annual tradition at this point. 00:00 Oscars 00:17 Best Foreign Language Film – I'm Still Here 00:50 Best Costume Design – Wicked: Part I 01:37 Best Original Song – "El Mal" from Emilia Pérez 02:04 Best Original Score – The Brutalist 02:31 Best Production Design – Wicked: Part I 03:23 Best Sound – Dune: Part Two 03:42 Best Visual Effects – Dune: Part Two 03:51 Best Cinematography – The Brutalist 04:32 Best Makeup and Hairstyling – The Substance 04:45 Best Film Editing – Anora 05:40 Best Adapted Screenplay – Conclave 06:37 Best Original Screenplay – Anora 07:23 Best Supporting Actress – Zoë Saldaña for Emilia Pérez 08:08 Best Supporting Actor – Kieran Culkin for A Real Pain 08:39 Best Actress – Mikey Madison for Anora 08:58 Best Actor – Adrien Brody for The Brutalist 09:40 Best Director – Sean Baker for Anora 10:12 Best Picture – Anora #academyawards #oscars #anora
