In his victory speech for Best Director, Christopher Nolan reminded us that it’s a privilege to witness the first 100 years of filmmaking, just as it would be to witness the first 100 years of art or literature. Just shy of its centennial anniversary, the 96th Oscars aired last night with a smooth, if predictable, ceremony honoring the past year of films.went out with seven other awards, including wins for Nolan and Best Actor Cillian Murphy, both first-time winners. .
This year, the Oscars revived an old presentation twist, where previous winners of the acting awards introduced this year’s nominees. It was a sweet note from the very first award of the night — Best Supporting Actress. Each of five returning winners gave a brief congratulatory speech to the five nominees — a clever pull at the heartstrings that naturally adds context to each of the showcased performances.
It’s always painful to witness ill-paired presenters struggle through scripted banter , but many presenter bits paid off this year. Reunitedco-stars and Best Visual Effects presenters Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito bonded not over their old hit comedy but their mutual status as ex-Batman villains, roping in retired Batman Michael Keaton from the audience for an unexpected and hilarious moment.
