“Everything Everywhere All at Once” will likely take Best Picture at Sunday’s Academy Awards, but there’s potential for upsets and surprises. Here’s an Oscars preview.
A “crisis team” will be working at the Academy Awards Sunday night, hoping to prevent — or at least quickly deal with — any trouble like last year’s infamous onstage slap of comedian Chris Rock by actor Will Smith.
The yearlong journey of this sci-fi multiverse mind bender from Oscars long shot to leading contender is the main story of these 95th Academy Awards. It indicates a warmer embrace of innovation and diversity by a group historically bound by tradition and exclusion. An impressive number of Canadian nominees are competing in multiple categories, including two for Best Picture: rape-reckoning drama “Women Talking” by Toronto’s Sarah Polley and sci-fi blockbuster “Avatar: The Way of Water” by Ontario-born James Cameron.
“Everything Everywhere” achieved the nifty feat of winning top prizes bestowed by guilds for producers, directors, actors and writers, a potent combination that historically leads directly to Best Picture at the Oscars.
