From Chloé Zhao becoming the second woman and first woman of color to win best director for 'Nomadland,' to an abrupt ending after Anthony Hopkins won best actor in an upset, this year's Oscars had plenty of history-making moments.

Many a buddy film has triumphed at the Oscars over the years. This was presumably the first about a human and … an octopus. “My Octopus Teacher” from Netflix rode a wave of fan enthusiasm to the best documentary feature prize. With stunning visuals, the film tells the tale of filmmaker Craig Foster, who became attached to a female octopus. Noted James Reed, co-director with Pippa Ehrlich: “If a man can form a friendship with an octopus, it does sort of make you wonder what else is possible.

Surely she will win one day, but for Sunday’s telecast at least, she had to make her mark another way. She did it with humor, in a rare comedy bit. Playing a game where Questlove would play a song and a celebrity would guess if it was ever nominated for or won an Oscar, Close was given E.U.’s “Da Butt.” In what appeared a scripted moment, she exclaimed: “Wait a second. Wait a second. That’s Da Butt.

What was the market share

If she was white she would not have won that movie sucked!!! antiAmerican

so much diversity and yet . . .

That's good but no one saw the film.

'Woman of colour'... For a moment I forgot I was living in the 21st century.

This a racist. What is this? The 1930's? You can't say woman of color.

🥱 Snoozer of a show. Who was the genius at the Academy who thought we should have inane and insipid bits of fun facts instead of clips of the nominees? Getting rid of movie clips from the Oscars makes as much sense as Grammys without music. 🙄🤦😴 OscarsSoBoring OscarsSoLame

Chloe Zhao is Chinese. She is not a “woman of colour” This is offensive to the Asian community who deserve the recognition.

Woke OSCARS! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

'first woman of color' ? That's pure racist! And sexist! Can we not stop judging people by their gender and ethnicity?
