The 96th Academy Awards overflowed with melodies, heartfelt addresses, and unexpected moments, including a glimpse of nudity courtesy of John Cena. In the event you missed out on who emerged triumphant, here’s the comprehensive list of winners.
We initially came for the allure of fashion, the humor, and Ken’s (portrayed by Ryan Gosling) performance, yet we found ourselves engrossed till the end to witness all the victors.
Christopher Nolan’s biopic on the atomic bomb, “Oppenheimer,” led the evening with the highest number of nominations and departed with the most accolades. Out of 13 nominations, it clinched seven trophies, notably including the coveted titles of Best Picture and Best Actor awarded to Cillian Murphy. The dark comedy “Poor Things” garnered 11 nominations and secured four wins, among them being Emma Stone’s recognition as Best Actress. Despite receiving 10 nominations, Martin Scorsese’s crime saga “Killers of the Flower Moon” left empty-handed.
