The 2022 Oscars updates

Now that the show is over, I know all you’re thinking about is Will Smith and Chris Rock, but allow me, for a moment, to offer you a reminder of simpler times during Sunday night’s Oscars.

Remember that wholesome recurring bit where the Academy reunited the casts of “Pulp Fiction,” “Juno,” “White Men Can’t Jump” and “The Godfather”? Precious.

Time has been kind to these fine actors.

The reunions made me want to watch all these movies again. Maybe I’ll do this after my customary three hours of post-Oscars meme hunting. Make that four hours. Something tells me this year’s are going to be good.

Hollywood is ready to party!

From the Governors Ball to the Elton John AIDS Foundation’s annual party, it’s going to be a night on the town for celebrities.

The Governor’s Ball is where the celebs make their first stop to get their Oscars engraved and eat yummy cuisine.

Elton John has been hosting his Oscars party since 1993 to raise money for his foundation.

To be a fly on the wall at those parties.

But we can all enjoy the photos in the morning to see what the stars changed into for their second looks of the night.

“CODA” won the coveted best picture Oscar on Sunday night and received a moving round of silent applause. The coming-of-age film from Apple tells the story of a young girl played by Emilia Jones, who is the only hearing person in her deaf family.

This is the first time the streamer has won an Academy Award for best picture.

The film received three nominations at the 94th Academy Awards. Troy Kotsur, who starred as Jones’ father in the film, made Oscars history when he took home the best supporting actor Oscar.

It marks only the second time a deaf performer has won an Academy Award. The first time was Marlee Matlin who won in 1987 for her role in the film, “Children of a Lesser God.”

Written and directed by Sian Heder, she won the Oscar for adapted screenplay on Sunday.

The film also won the SAG Award for outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture.

Jessica Chastain won the Oscar for best actress for her role in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” on Sunday and used her speech to touch on suicide, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community and the hopelessness that so many have felt.

“In times like this, I think of Tammy and am inspired by her radical acts of love,” Chastain said. “We’ve talked about love a lot tonight. I’m inspired by her compassion, and I see it as a guiding principle.”

The late Tammy Faye Bakker, who Chastain portrayed, was a diligent activist for the LGBTQ+ community.

Chastain noted that we all want to be accepted for “who we are,” “who we love,” and “to live a life without the fear of violence or terror.”

“For any of you out there who do in fact feel hopeless or alone, I just want you to know that you are unconditionally loved for the uniqueness that is you,” Chastain said.

Will Smith won his first Academy Award on Sunday night and, during his acceptance speech, offered his apologies to the Academy and others for an earlier incident in which the actor appeared to strike presenter Chris Rock.

He tearfully accepted the award for his role as Richard Williams, the father of Venus and Serena Williams, in the film “King Richard.” Smith said Williams “was a fierce defender of his family.”

Smith said, “I know to do what we do, you gotta be able to take abuse and have people talk people about you. In this business, you gotta have people disrespecting you. And you gotta smile and pretend that’s ok.”

Smith also talked about being a “protector” and thanked the tennis legends and their family.

Smith shared that prior to his win, fellow nominee Denzel Washington shared some wisdom with him: “At your highest moment be careful, that’s when the devil comes for you.”

Smith ended saying that he hopes the Academy welcomes him back.

“The Power of the Dog’ director Jane Campion is an Oscar winner.

Campion on Sunday won the award for best director, becoming the third woman to win the prize. 

The first was Kathryn Bigelow, who won for “Hurt Locker” and “Nomadland” director Chloé Zhao won last year. 

Last month, Campion made history when she became the first woman to ever be nominated twice in the category. 

Her first nomination was for the 1993 film “The Piano.” That same year, she won an Oscar for best screenplay for the same movie.

When Campion earned her first nomination, she was only the second woman ever nominated in the category. The first was Lina Wertmüller, nominated for 1976′s “Seven Beauties.”

In recent years, women have been better represented in the category. Two women – Emerald Fennell (“Promising Young Woman”) and eventual winner Zhao – were nominated in the category in the same year for the first time. 

Campion was the favorite to take home the award tonight. 

Her fellow nominees were Kenneth Branagh (“Belfast”), Ryusuke Hamaguchi (“Drive My Car”), Paul Thomas Anderson (“Licorice Pizza”) and Steven Spielberg (“West Side Story”).

Spielberg previously beat out Campion in this category in 1994 with his win for “Schindler’s List.”

Chris Rock made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaved head, which did not appear to go over well with her husband Will Smith.

While presenting the award for best documentary, Rock joked, “Jada I love you, ‘G.I. Jane 2,’ can’t wait to see it.”

The camera cut to Pinkett Smith, who rolled her eyes as she sat next to Smith.

“That was a nice one,” Rock said, appearing to respond to the joke not going over well.

Pinkett Smith has been open about her struggle with alopecia, an autoimmune disorder that leads to hair loss.

Rock then said, “Oh uh,” and laughed as Smith walked toward him on stage and appeared to strike Rock in the face.

According to CNN reporter Stephanie Elam, who is in the audience, she could hear Rock getting hit. Smith said twice during the incident, according to Elam, “Keep my wife’s name out of your f***ing mouth!”

Rock responded: “Oh, wow.”

For viewers at home, censors muted the verbal part of the exchange between Rock and Smith.

The theater went silent and Rock said, “That was the greatest night in the history of television.”

Sean “Diddy” Combs took to the stage later and told Smith and Rock that they would settle things “like family” later.

Billie Eilish took the stage with her brother Finneas at the Oscars on Sunday night to perform “No Time To Die” from the James Bond film of the same name.

They are nominated for best original song, which they co-wrote.

This is the second time they’ve taken the Oscars stage. In 2020, she sang “Yesterday” by The Beatles with her brother during the in memoriam segment.

One of the most exciting performances of Oscars night was “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” from the hit Disney animated film “Encanto.”

The performance featured surprise cameos from Megan Thee Stallion and Becky G.

The catchy tune, written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, knocked Adele’s “Easy On Me” out of the No.1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and became the first Disney song to reach the top spot since “A Whole New World” from “Aladdin” in 1993.

“We Don’t Talk About Bruno” has been streamed more than 34 million times, according to Billboard.

Sebastian Yatra also performed the ballad “Dos Oruguitas” from the film during the show.

“Encanto” is directed by Jared Bush and Byron Howard and was released in the fall.

It tells the story of a family from Colombia named the Madrigals, who each have magical gifts in their town called Encanto. One character, an estranged uncle named Bruno, has the power see the future.

But as the song title suggests, the Madrigal family would prefer not to talk about it.

Mila Kunis, who was born in Ukraine, took a moment while introducing a best song of the year nominee and performance to address the anguish in her homeland.

“Recent global events have left many of us feeling gutted,” Kunis said. “Yet, when you witness the strength and dignity of those facing such devastation, it’s impossible to not be moved by their resilience. One cannot help but be in awe of those who find strength to keep fighting through unimaginable darkness.”

Kunis, who along with her husband Ashton Kutcher has raised millions for Ukraine, introduced Reba McEntire singing “Somehow You Do,” a “song of resilience” from the film “Four Good Days.”

After the performance, the following words flashed on the screen:

“We’d like to have a moment of silence to show our support for the people of Ukraine currently facing invasion, conflict and prejudice within their own borders. While film is an important avenue for us to express our humanity in times of conflict, the reality is millions of families in Ukraine need food, medical care, clean water, and emergency services. Resources are scarce, and we – collectively as a global community – can do more. We ask you to support Ukraine in any way you are able. #standwithukraine”

Troy Kotsur made history at the 2022 Oscars, becoming the first deaf performer to win an Academy Award in the best supporting actor category for his role in “CODA.” His co-star in the film, Marlee Matlin, won an Oscar for best actress in 1987 for her role in the movie “Children of a Lesser God.”

When Kotsur took the stage, Oscar winner Youn Yuh-jung presented him with the award by signing to him and also sweetly held his Oscar so that he could use sign language to accept his award.

“This is amazing to be here on this journey. I can’t believe I’m here,” Kotsur signed. “I really want to thank all of the wonderful deaf theater stages where I was able to develop my craft as an actor.”

He continued, “My dad he was the best signer in our family but he was in a car accident and he became paralyzed from the neck down and was no longer able to sign … you are my hero.” Kotsur added that his Oscar is “dedicated” to the deaf community.

Kotsur also won a Golden Globe and SAG Award this year for his role in the film.

Disney’s “Encanto” won big at the Oscars, winning best animated feature film.

The film, released in November 2021, features the voices of Stephanie Beatriz, Maria Cecilia Botero, John Leguizamo, Mauro Castillo, Jessica Darrow, Angie Cepeda, Carolina Gaitan, Diane Guerrero and Wilmer Valderrama.

The film, directed by Jared Bush and Byron Howard, tells the story of a magical family from Colombia named the Madrigals. Main character Mirabel (Beatriz), who did not receive a special power, is tasked with saving her family’s magic and does so with help from her uncle Bruno, who can see the future.

The film’s hit song “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in January. The catchy tune was written by Lin-Manuel Miranda and became the first Disney song to reach the top spot since the 1993 “Aladdin” hit “A Whole New World.”

There was a backlash when “West Side Story” star Rachel Zegler shared that she hadn’t been invited to this year’s Academy Award despite her movie being nominated for best film.

“I hope some last minute miracle occurs and I can celebrate our film in person but hey, that’s how it goes sometimes, I guess,” Zegler wrote on Instagram. “Thanks for all the shock and outrage - I’m disappointed too. But That’s okay. So proud of our movie.”

Well, miracles apparently do happen and Zegler got to present – alongside Jacob Elordi – for achievement in visual effects.

When Elordi said he never thought he’d be at the Oscars, Zegler joked, “I never thought that I would be here six days ago,” she said. “We did it. Dreams really can come true, pretty fast, too.”

Good one!

There truly is a place for more than one actor to play a role.

Ariana DeBose took home the best supporting actress Oscar for playing Anita in “West Side Story,” making history just like Rita Moreno did for snagging the same trophy for the same role in 1962.

Here are some other actors who have pulled off the same:

Marlon Brando and Robert De Niro - Brando won for best actor in 1973 for portraying Vito Corleone in “The Godfather,” and two years later, De Niro won for the same role in the sequel.

Heath Ledger and Joaquin Phoenix - Legder was awarded the best supporting actor award posthumously in 2009 for playing The Joker in “The Dark Knight.” In 2020, Phoenix won for playing the villain in “Joker.”

Ariana DeBose won best actress in a supporting role for “West Side Story” at the Academy Awards on Sunday. This is her first Oscar nomination and win. DeBose has received acclaim for her role as Anita in the musical film. She is the first openly queer woman of color to win in this category.

When DeBose took the stage she emotionally said, “Even in this weird world we live in, dreams do come true… thank you Steven Spielberg you are stuck with me now.”

She also thanked her mother, who came as her guest and was in the audience. DeBose also spoke about growing up queer and said, “For anyone who has ever questioned their identity, there is indeed a place for us.”

DeBose has previously won a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and a SAG Award for this role.

In 1962, Rita Moreno won the same award for the same role. Moreno starred as Anita in the original “West Side Story” film and made history as the first Hispanic actress to win in the best supporting actress category.

Moreno plays drugstore owner Valentina in the remake

DJ Khaled introduced our trio of hosts for the night – Regina Hall, Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes.

“This year the Academy hired three women to host because it’s cheaper than hiring one man,” Schumer joked.

What followed was jokes about LeBron James’ hairline in “Space Jam 2,” the lack of diversity at the Golden Globes and Samuel L. Jackson’s lack of work in a romantic comedy.

They promised a great night and, “For you people in Florida, we’re going to have a gay night,” Sykes said, poking fun at the controversial “Don’t Say Gay” bill.

What happens when you mix the woman who gave us “Lemonade” with the legendary tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams?

You get a full on performance of the Oscar nominated song “Be Alive” from the film “King Richard” brought to the world from the tennis courts in Compton, California where the Williams sisters honed their craft.

Bey, along with her dancers, backup singers and musicians got in “Formation” with the super tight choreography and top-tier vocals we have come to expect from the legendary artist.

“King Richard” tells the story of the Williams sisters father who helped to shape them into two of the most successful tennis stars in the history of the sport.

Will Smith is up for best actor for the role of Richard Williams.

Kristen Stewart arrived to the Academy Awards wearing shorts. The actress, who is nominated for role as Princess Diana in “Spencer” wore the black shorts, paired with a plunging white top and black tuxedo blazer, all designed by Chanel.

Stewart’s nomination in the best actress category is her first Oscar nod. Twitter erupted with fans debating whether her look is too casual.

As for being nominated, Stewart recently told ET, “I am truly astounded and unbelievably moved and touched and just stunned,” she said. 

We can now officially say that Hollywood is all the way back.

After two years of pandemic pause, Sunday night had a hot red carpet with plenty of stars, glam and excitement.

Check out some of the best looks of the night.

“Flee” was already an extraordinary film even before it became more meaningful because of current event.

The movie tells the story of Amin Nawabi (an alias to protect the actual person), who along with his family become refugees when they flee Afghanistan.

With the hundreds of thousands of Ukranians forced to leave their homeland because of the invasion by Russian forces, it’s a timely plot line (part of the film takes place in Russia).

The film, which also involves LGBTQ+ issues, is the first to be nominated for best documentary feature, best animated feature and best international feature film in the same year.

“It’s rare to get a film that is so timely and speaks so much to world events and the moment we’re living in right now,” actor Riz Ahmed, who served as an executive producer on the movie, told the Washington Post. 

Your inner Miranda Priestly might be sarcastically saying, “Red on the red carpet – groundbreaking.”

But, you know what? It’s a timeless choice, as evident by all the dazzling ladies and gents who hit the red carpet looking radiant in red.

Hollywood loves a remake/reboot and nowhere is that more evident than in this year’s best picture nominees.

Four of the 10 films nominated are just such.

“Dune” derives from Frank Herbert’s classic science fiction novel and follows David Lynch’s 1984 version; “West Side Story” began as a beloved Broadway musical in 1957 before it became an even more beloved film in 1961 that starred Natalie Wood and Rita Moreno (the later of whom appears in the latest remake).

“CODA” is based on the 2014 French film “La Famille Bélier,” and “Nightmare Alley” is based on the 1946 novel by William Lindsay Gresham, which became a film noir the following year.

That means there is a 40% chance that this year’s winner will be a movie that you could potentially go and watch another version of, thus possibly doubling the viewing pleasure.

From skin care to makeup and showing off their final looks, the stars have been sharing on social media how they are getting ready for Hollywood’s biggest night.

Co-host Amy Schumer thanked skin care expert Georgia Louise for getting her face camera ready with a photo of the two of them.

Likewise, reality star Kourtney Kardashian shared a video on Instagram showing her getting “a little Oscar’s prep with ‘The Beauty Sandwich,’” which is billed on its website as “a noninvasive, nontoxic alternative for the new age of skin care.”

“Black-ish” star Tracee Ellis Ross posted her awards show look complete with a daring Carolina Herrera gown. In the caption, she wrote “Oscars, baby.”

The women weren’t the only one’s to get in on the fun.

Marvel star Simu Liu shared a video of him getting some attention paid to his under eye area by a makeup artist as he got ready for the night.

The Academy Awards keeps a searchable database of more than 1,400 acceptance speeches delivered during the show’s 89-year history. A journey through this digital time machine will make two things clear: thanking your mom never goes out of style and there’s an art to finding words that will – unlike a statue – not lose their shine over time.

Back in 2017, I explored this topic in a story ahead of an Oscars that was capping off an award season that was full of political speeches. (See: Meryl Streep’s 6-minute speech at the Golden Globes. “Stranger Things” star David Harbour’s fiery SAG screed. Or Patton Oswalt’s entire performance as host at the Writer’s Guild of America awards.) 

The question going into Oscars night at the time was whether winners would continue the trend and, if they did, how they’d meet the challenge of finding something new to say. 

I appreciated then-host Jimmy Kimmel’s advice: “[I hope] people say what they want to say – whether it has to do with what’s going on in the country or the world, or maybe they just want to thank their mom and dad and their acting teacher,” he told me. “I just hope the speeches are sincere and in the moment.”

That remains good advice today and, as a viewer, my hope for tonight. Whether you look at current events through a global lens or domestically, there’s a lot of pain and hurt in this world. If that’s what someone chooses to speak about tonight or not, that is their choice, but whatever you do, do it with focus, clarity and heart. Nothing is more painful than a rambling speech that tries to do too much and ends up doing no subject service. 

Overall, however, when it comes to speeches, I will never forget the words of filmmaker Peter Davis. His arresting Vietnam documentary “Hearts and Minds” picked up an award in 1975, in a memorable and controversial Oscars speech moment. His advice for winners? “Say something they’re going to be proud of 34 years later.” 

The Oscars have lined up some major star power for this year’s ceremony – and yes, it includes Beyoncé.

The superstar singer, nominated for “Be Alive” from the film “King Richard,” was among the performers announced Tuesday by the Academy.

Others headed to the Oscars include…

ABC said in a release that Van Morrison, behind the fifth nominated song “Down to Joy,” was invited to perform but was unable to attend “due to his tour schedule.”

“Therefore ‘Down To Joy’ from ‘Belfast’ will not be performed on the broadcast,” the release said.

Like any awards show, the Oscars are built on the inherently self-absorbed notion that what happens in the room and who takes home the trophies matters, in what should be a welcome distraction from the outside world.

Occasionally, though, world events have cast such a large shadow that they can’t be ignored. And while the Hollywood maxim is that the show must go on, in a few instances real-world concerns have intruded upon the ceremony in a way that forced organizers to alter its schedule, including last year’s delay due to a global pandemic.

The war in Ukraine has dominated news cycles and prompted statements of solidarity from members of the film and TV industry in the run-up to the Oscars. Through the years, politics and the Oscars have gone hand in hand, and war has frequently been part of the backdrop, from World War II – when the actual statuettes were made of plaster due to metal shortages – to Vietnam, a tumultuous period that on various occasions spilled into the broadcast.

Still, during the televised era three events particularly stand out: The assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968, the assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan in 1981, and the onset of the Iraq war in 2003.

In the first two instances, the awards were postponed briefly, and there was discussion of doing so in 2003. (The Oscars were delayed one other time because of flooding in 1938.)

Click here for look back at each of those events, and the effect they had on the ceremony.

“Are the Oscars even the Oscars anymore?” – that’s the question at the center of this opinion piece from Gene Seymour, who recaps some of the best picture nominees’ roads to the big night and the bumps they’ve had along the way.

Or, in the case of “CODA,” the movie’s distinct lack of bumps.

While he calls the film one told “with warmth, grace and gentle humor,” he says the movie’s strong Oscars chances come down to one factor: “It’s a movie that offends precisely nobody.”

He writes:

The bigger and broader the content, the less equipped we seem to be to handle risky or challenging material. Not so long ago, it was possible to imagine daring, ambitious movies being made that used such genres as, say, the gangster movie, to depict in wider, broader and more ambitious terms the story of America itself and the slow corruption of its nobler impulses and precious aspirations.
There was a movie that fit the description. It was called “The Godfather” and Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony is one of many institutions honoring that movie’s 50th anniversary.

Read more here and ponder this as we head into the night, where we’ll find out exactly how the best picture race pans out.

The Oscars will not shy away from acknowledging the ongoing war in Ukraine, according to the show’s executive producer Will Packer.

“This is a really [momentous] time in humankind history, and we’re very aware of that,” Packer told reporters during a virtual press conference on Thursday. “And so you don’t go into a show like this, I don’t think, and not be aware of that and not find a way to respectfully acknowledge where we are and how fortunate we are to even be able to put on this show.”

This year’s Academy Awards will take place amid an increasingly devastating conflict following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine roughly one month ago and more than two years after the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.

On the red carpet, CNN asked Packer about the speculation surrounding Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and whether he would be addressing the Academy Awards in some fashion tonight.

“We’re going to acknowledge what’s going on in Ukraine and do it in an appropriate way for a show like this, and a platform like this,” Packer told CNN’s Stephanie Elam. “I think you have to be really aware of what this is, what this industry is and what this platform is. And I think some platforms are more appropriate than others, especially when you talk about leaders of a war-torn country that certainly we support, but we’re going to definitely do right in terms of acknowledging it, while still trying to keep this in an upbeat and celebratory occasion.”

For the people who are too tired to Google (been there), here’s what you need to know about tonight’s Oscars:

Reece Feldman, 23, is living out his dreams at the 94th annual Academy Awards.

The Oscars are embracing TikTok stars to help create buzz around Hollywood’s biggest night and boost the show’s ratings among younger viewers. They’ve partnered this year with 24 TikTok stars, including Feldman, Emily Uribe and Juju Green, for behind-the-scenes peeks and interviews with celebrities, says Meryl Johnson, the Academy’s vice president of digital marketing.

Until recently Feldman had no idea his TikTok account, which focuses on the film industry and has over 23 million likes, had drawn the attention of Hollywood’s heavy hitters.

As a production assistant, he posts videos from TV and movie sets under the TikTok handle @guywithamoviecamera to more than 619,000 followers. One of his most popular posts shows him preparing a table read on the set of “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.”

“There’s nothing I enjoy more than talking about movies. I just love storytelling,” Feldman says.

The Super Bowl of the arts is coming on Sunday night. And while Americans may not pay attention to the Academy Awards as they used to, they still pack a punch.

The films and those who make the films (actors, actresses, producers, directors, etc.) are artists of the highest caliber. The Oscar show, however, is largely about statistics. So what are those statistics telling us about the Oscars this year? Let’s talk about it.

Who is likely to win in the Big Five categories

The Big Five categories are best actor, best actress, best director, best screenplay (original or adapted) and, of course, best picture. Three films have won all Big Five, and the last to do it was “Silence of the Lambs” in 1991. No film this year is eligible to pull it off.

Still, based on the implied probabilities of the betting markets, here are who will most likely win the Oscars in those categories.

Best actor: Will Smith is a clear favorite with north of an 80% chance of winning for his role in “King Richard.” Benedict Cumberbatch is really the only somewhat plausible nominee with a little bit more than a 10% chance of winning for his role in “The Power of the Dog.”

Best actress: Unlike in best actor, there are a number of plausible winners. Jessica Chastain has about a 60% chance of winning for her role in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye.” She’s followed by Nicole Kidman (“Being the Ricardos”) with just south of a 20% chance of winning, and Olivia Colman (“The Lost Daughters”) and Kristen Stewart (“Spencer”) with about a 10% chance of taking home the Oscar.

Best director: It would be quite surprising if Jane Campion doesn’t win here for “The Power of the Dog.” She has about a 90% chance of taking home the Oscar. If anyone scores a major upset, it will be Steven Spielberg (“West Side Story”) or Kenneth Branagh (“Belfast”), though both have less than 5% chance.

Best original screenplay and best adapted screenplay: Honestly, I don’t know who is going to win in either of these categories. “Licorice Pizza” and “Belfast” each have about a 40% chance in the best original screenplay category (with “Don’t Look Up” at about 15%). “CODA” is somewhat ahead (a little north of 50% chance) of “The Power of the Dog” (a little south of 40%) in the best adapted screenplay race.

Best picture: This is a two film race. It’s very likely either “The Power of the Dog” (a little more than a 50% chance of winning) or “CODA” (a little less than a 40%) who will take home the big prize this year.

For more on what the statistics tell us about this year’s audience and more, read my full report here.

And the Oscar host duties go to … Wanda Sykes, Amy Schumer and Regina Hall.

This is the first time in Oscars’ history that three women have hosted the show – though it’s not the first time more than one person has been enlisted for the job.

The most recent instance was in 2011, when actors James Franco and Anne Hathaway hosted, to harsh reviews. The Oscars has not had three hosts since Chevy Chase, Goldie Hawn and Paul Hogan teamed up for the 59th Academy Awards in 1987.

The past three ceremonies have been hostless, a trend that began in 2019 when Kevin Hart opted to step away from the gig amid controversy.

With about two hours to go until the big show, if you hurry, you have just enough time to get one more Oscar-nominated movie under your belt.

Well, maybe not “Drive My Car” (which runs 2 hours 59 minutes). Or “West Side Story” (2 minutes 36 minutes). Or “Dune” (2 minutes 35 minutes). You get the picture.

Here’s a reminder of where you can watch some of this year’s nominees: 

Netflix

Best picture: “Don’t Look Up,” “The Power of the Dog.”

Best actor and actress: Andrew Garfield (“Tick, Tick … Boom!”), Olivia Colman (“The Lost Daughter”) and Benedict Cumberbatch (“The Power of the Dog”).

Best animated movie: “The Mitchells vs. the Machines.”

Best international movie: “The Hand of God.”

HBO Max

Best picture: “Nightmare Alley,” “Drive My Car.” 

Best actress: Jessica Chastain (“The Eyes of Tammy Faye”).
