THOUGHTS ON THE
SHOW
For the second year in a row, the Oscars decided to go
without a host to headline the ceremony. As I noted in last year’s Oscars recap
post, there was some initial skepticism about this decision when this happened
last year since the last Oscars to go without a host, the 61st
Academy Awards in 1989, is still considered as one of the worst Oscar
ceremonies of all-time. Thankfully, though, the 91st Academy Awards did
not turn out the same way as the lack of a host surprisingly managed to work
out just fine in this instance. Most notably, it managed to condense the notoriously
long show in a good way rather than the ways that the Academy had planned on
condensing it that year (e.g. cutting the performances of the Best Original
Song nominees and not showing the acceptance speeches for a few select
categories). Thus, emboldened by the success of last year’s ceremony, the Academy
decided to once again go without a host… although it is worth noting that this
year, the decision was intentional rather than it being due to their original
host Kevin Hart having to back out due to offensive tweets. And once again, the
‘no host’ option worked very well. This year’s ceremony did run a few minutes
longer than last year’s ceremony, but it still came in at a respectable three hours
and thirty-five minutes. In other words, I think it’s safe to say that nothing
will ever top the 74th Academy Awards’ runtime of a whopping four hours
and twenty-three minutes. Just like last year, the lack of a host meant that
the show was able to get through all the award categories at a solid pace without
being bogged down by any of the host’s sketches that could’ve potentially gone
on too long (e.g. Neil Patrick Harris’ ‘Oscar Predictions’ box from a few years
back). In short, I’ll reiterate what I said last time in that I’m fine if the
Oscars decide to keep doing ‘no host’ ceremonies in the future although I do
hope that this doesn’t completely turn them off from having any more hosts
since I genuinely feel that the right kind of host can truly do wonders for
this event. Just look at Ellen DeGeneres’ turn at the 86th Academy Awards
or Hugh Jackman’s turn at the 81st.
As for this year’s results, it seems to me like this will
end up being one of the more ‘well-received’ batches of Oscar winners in recent memory,
namely thanks to director Bong Joon-Ho’s critically acclaimed Parasite scoring
four Oscars (the most of the night) that included the big one, Best Picture. In
fact, Parasite is the first-ever non-English film to win this award,
which can only mean good things for both the Oscars and the industry going
forward when it comes to international films. However, as is the case with
every ceremony, there was still a lot of discussion over this year’s biggest
snubs; namely, a complete lack of female nominees in the Best Director category.
And while those who’ve been following this site for a while know that I usually
don’t make any kind of fuss over this sort of thing, it’s clear that this whole
situation is one that could’ve easily been avoided given all the big female-directed
films that came out in 2019. Just to name a select few, there’s Lorene Scafaria’s
Hustlers, Lulu Wang’s The Farewell, and Alma Har’el’s Honey
Boy. This also includes Greta Gerwig’s Little Women, to an extent,
because while it did earn a Best Picture nomination and ultimately won for Best
Costume Design, Gerwig only got a screenwriting nomination. Now again, like I
just said, I don’t get worked up over snubs anymore because I believe that award
shows like this aren’t meant to be the definitive tally on what the best films
are in any given year. However, this does lead me to something that I’ve been
dying to talk about that’s starting to become more of an issue in recent years,
and the way I see it, it’s something that could quite possibly explain why
certain snubs have been happening. Specifically, I’m referring to the ‘Honest
Oscar ballots’ from anonymous voters that get published by major media outlets.
I briefly talked about this last year when I mentioned that one voter who dismissed
Avengers: Infinity War as a ‘money grab’ and viewed Black Panther as
being ‘not that much better’ than most of the other Marvel films. But believe me,
folks, when I say that it only got worse this year, which is why I now present…
A SMALL
SAMPLING OF THE BIZARRE HOT TAKES FROM THIS YEAR’S COLLECTION OF ‘HONEST OSCAR
BALLOTS’
Of the various ‘Honest
Oscar Ballots’ that were published this year, many of them didn’t have a lot of
positive things to say about Little Women. One dinged it for casting British
actresses in the four leading roles (even though only two of them are
technically British), quite a few called its narrative confusing, and another criticized
it for being unoriginal… while simultaneously praising Joker for its
originality even though one could argue the exact opposite with that film.
There also wasn’t a
lot of love for this year’s Best Original Song nominees, with one voter even
going as far as to abstain from the vote even though they had listened to all
the songs.
While Toy Story 4 ended
up taking home the award for Best Animated Feature, it was clear that not all
voters were 100% on board with that decision. One called it a “Franchise f***ing
Campbell’s Soup Film” while another claimed that they weren’t going to vote for
it simply because Pixar’s already won the award so many times.
Finally, while the
Oscars crowd was beyond ecstatic for Bong Joon-Ho and the Parasite crew’s
multiple wins, apparently there was one voter who thought differently. Not only
did they want an ‘American’ director to win Best Director, but they also
thought that foreign films shouldn’t be nominated for Best Picture.
But the one hot take that I want to focus on specifically
comes from the same voter who wasn’t going to vote for Toy Story 4 because
of Pixar’s consistent success in the Best Animated Feature category. This voter
proclaimed that this year’s slate of Best Picture nominees were the films that they
“should be honoring” rather than something like Avengers: Endgame and
stated that they were “the last stand against the franchises”… even though ‘franchise’
films usually don’t get any sort of recognition from the Oscars, to begin with, outside
of the technical categories. If I haven’t mentioned it before, comments like
these basically sum up my issue with the Oscars rather than things like whether
a film truly deserved its nomination compared to a film that didn’t get one. Instead,
it’s the simple fact that ‘genre’ films don’t get that much love at shows like
this, and I’m not just talking about films like Endgame. The horror
genre often gets overlooked entirely (Bill Hader from It: Chapter Two,
anyone?) and while I’m not going to piss off someone like Brad Bird and call it
a ‘genre’, only three animated films have ever been nominated for Best Picture despite several of them being some of the most
well-reviewed films of their respective years. Now, as always, I know damn well
that not every blockbuster is going to be a thought-provoking masterpiece, but
that doesn’t mean that they can’t be of the same quality as the films that get
nominated for Best Picture every year. And yet, after reading through all these
‘Honest Oscar Ballots’, I can now say that I finally understand why that Best
Popular Film category that they were proposing last year was so poorly received.
Last year, I stated that I wasn’t too bothered by it when compared to the rest
of the internet but now I fully agree that this would’ve been an utterly
terrible method of honoring films that apparently aren’t good enough to be
nominated for Best Picture. But to conclude this extended summary of my
thoughts on this year’s Oscars, I’m just going to reiterate what I’ve been
saying for years now in that this is just one show. And while the lack of female
nominees for Best Director was certainly an issue this year, the fact that an
international release like Parasite managed to win Best Picture does make
me believe that the Oscars will continue to evolve when it comes to what gets
nominated every year.
With all that out of
the way, let’s delve into the biggest highlights from this year’s ceremony. If
you recall, last year’s Oscars recap post did away with the idea of separating the
highlights into ‘best’ and ‘worst’ categories. While this was partially because
I felt that there weren’t any ‘bad’ moments from last year’s broadcast, it’s mainly
a case where I figured that it’d be better to just go through all the memorable
moments, for better or worse…
THIS YEAR’S HIGHLIGHTS
Last year’s hostless ceremony opened with an energetic performance
by Adam Lambert and Queen to kick things off.
This year’s ceremony started off in similar fashion thanks to Janelle Monáe, who opened the show
with a lovely tribute to Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood and its iconic opening
theme, “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?”. Monáe
then followed that up with a film-based rendition of her song “Come Alive (The
War of the Roses)” complete with background dancers dressed as various characters
from 2019 films including the Joker and the Tethered from Us. Billy
Porter also joined in at one point with a performance of Elton John’s hit song “I’m
Still Standing”. Also, as per usual with her live performances of “Come Alive”,
Monáe (wearing a
flowered shawl and crown a la Midsommar) got the audience to sing along
with her, which led to some participation from the likes of Brie Larson, Kathy
Bates, and perhaps most amusingly, Leonardo DiCaprio. All in all, it was a fun
performance to start off the biggest night in Hollywood, and it even gave Monáe a chance to “celebrate
all the women who directed phenomenal films” this past year and how she was “so
proud to stand here as a black, queer artist telling stories” in recognition of
Black History Month. This was, of course, in reference to the lack of female
nominees for Best Director as well as having only one African American nominee
in the acting categories (Cynthia Erivo as Harriet Tubman in Harriet).
Another segment that was carried over from last year’s show
was the first presenters who started things off with some humorous remarks. Last
year’s Oscars were kickstarted by the trio of Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, and Maya
Rudolph; this year, that honor went to former Oscar hosts Steve Martin and
Chris Rock (“Such an incredible demotion!”). And really, there’s not much more
that I can say here aside from pointing out some of their best jokes such as…
“They don’t really
have hosts anymore, why is that?” “Twitter! Everybody’s got an embarrassing tweet
somewhere. I know I do.”
“Marty [Scorsese], I got
to tell you, I loved the first season of The Irishman!”
“Cynthia [Erivo] did such
a great job in Harriet hiding black people that the Academy got her to hide
all the black nominees…”
Over the years, Oscar ceremonies have given us some fun
presenter duos whose strong camaraderie resulted in some of the funniest moments
of the night, and this year was no exception. Take, for example, Maya Rudolph
and Kristen Wiig, who came out to present the award for Best Production Design
looking rather angry. In fact, they were so “t-ed off” that they were about to leave
the stage… before ultimately admitting that it was just an act to show all the
directors in attendance that they can do much more than comedy. And when they
came back immediately afterward to present the award for Best Costume Design,
they figured that it’d be better to sing about costume design first rather than
going straight to the nominees. Sure, it may have elicited one heck of a confused reaction from Billie Eilish, but you really can’t go wrong with two of the
funniest women in the business.
A CELEBRATION OF
MUSIC IN FILM – COMPLETE WITH AN EMINEM PERFORMANCE
Now let’s talk about one of the more unique moments of this
year’s telecast, which all began when Lin-Manuel Miranda came onstage to
introduce a montage of classic moments in film that were heavily defined by their
music. This montage included everything from “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” from
The Breakfast Club to the title song from Footloose before concluding
with the Oscar-winning song “Lose Yourself” from 8 Mile by Eminem… who
then proceeded to perform it live on stage. Now at first glance, this may look
like one of the most random moments in recent Oscars history. Sure, “Lose
Yourself” did win the Oscar for Best Original Song at the 75th
Academy Awards, but it’s not like this was an anniversary year for it or
anything. However, upon further research, it seems like this was primarily
meant to make up for Eminem not attending the 75th Academy Awards for
various reasons that included the simple fact that he didn’t think the song was
going to win. But, of course, it did, and 17 years later, he finally got the
chance to perform it on the Oscars stage to a crowd that was as full of enthusiastic
listeners (e.g. Zazie Beetz, Kelly Marie Tran, and Gal Gadot) as it was those
who weren’t quite as invested in it (e.g. Billie Eilish and Martin Scorsese). Speaking
of raps…
At around the midway point of the ceremony, actor Utkarsh
Ambudkar appeared on stage to provide a recap of everything that had happened
so far in the form of a rap backed by music from Questlove. Like Janelle Monáe’s opening number, Ambudkar’s
performance was an excellent combination of film references (e.g. the infamous ‘Adele
Dazeem’ incident from the 86th Academy Awards (“Her name is Idina
Menzel, Mr. Travolta!”) and an acknowledgment of this year’s lack of diverse
nominees (“Keep an open mind, I’m sure you’ll find that there’s plenty of light
here for us all to shine!”). Now the only thing to do is to wait and see if his
prediction of the film adaptation of In the Heights being “guaranteed to
win” next year ends up coming true.
Another fun presenter duo from this year’s ceremony was Will
Ferrell and Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who presented the awards for Best Cinematography
and Best Editing. Before announcing the winner for Best Cinematography,
however, the two celebrated cinematographers for all that they bring to film…
namely, “preparing the meals for the crew and cast” and “waiting patiently for
you in that golf cart to ‘travel’ you to set”. It wasn’t until Will Ferrell
received a message from an unknown figure via the ‘earpiece’ that he got from backstage
that they were informed that these weren’t the jobs that cinematographers are
known for. And while they were far more accurate with their descriptions of editors,
they also noted that they were both cut from some of the year’s biggest films.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus mentioned that she was originally in 1917 and Parasite
while Ferrell revealed that, initially, it was meant to be Ford v
Ferrari v Ferrell and that he’s still in a lot of the film’s key art (“I’m just
going to say it, I hate this award!” – Will Ferrell).
While this next moment wasn’t related to any of the ceremony’s
awards, it was still quite noteworthy for what it revealed. After an
introduction from Academy president David Rubin, Tom Hanks noted that there are
several museums in Los Angeles dedicated to all sorts of culture including, to
his complete bewilderment, a selfie museum. But until recently, there was never
a museum in the City of Angels that was dedicated solely to what is quite arguably
its greatest import. Thus, he announced that the Academy Museum of Motion
Pictures would finally open its doors at the corner of Wilshire and Fairfax on
December 14th, 2020. Now if you’re like me and you follow film for a
living, this is a big deal, especially given how long it’s taken for this to
come together. To put this all into perspective, I remember when it was slated
to open all the way back in 2017; it’s one of the main reasons why my mom and I
went on vacation in LA that summer because we thought it’d be open by then.
Obviously, though, it took a little longer than that for it to be finished;
nevertheless, I look forward to the day when I finally get the chance to step
into what will surely be a wonderful tribute to the history of filmmaking.
(It’s also worth
noting that Tom Hanks concluded his segment with a nice little tribute to the
late Kirk Douglas by proclaiming that he is Spartacus.)
Practically from the moment it was first announced, the film
adaptation of the Broadway musical Cats was slated to be one of the most
infamous projects in recent memory. Sure enough, the film was downright savaged
by critics upon its release, with the most common criticism directed towards
the visual effects that were used to bring the story’s characters to life. This
was directly lampshaded by two of the film’s stars, James Corden and Rebel
Wilson, when they came out dressed as their characters from the film (Bustopher
Jones and Jennyanydots, respectively) to present the award for Best Visual
Effects. The two proclaimed that as part of the film’s cast, they understood “the
importance of good visual effects”. But just like the film
itself, this moment did attract some controversy as the Visual Effects Society criticized
the bit for turning the art of visual effects into the butt of the joke. And yet,
while I do see where they’re coming from, I also think that Corden and Wilson
deserve some major credit for, at the very least, taking all the criticism that
the film has gotten like champs.
TAIKA WAITITI HONORS
ALL INDIGENOUS CULTURES
With his win for Best Adapted Screenplay for his film Jojo
Rabbit, Taika Waititi became both the first Maori filmmaker and the first filmmaker
of indigenous heritage to win a Screenplay Oscar. Later in the ceremony,
Waititi followed that up with further acknowledgment of the indigenous people
who once inhabited the spot where Hollywood now stands; specifically, the Tongva,
the Tataviam, and the Chumash. And to make this pivotal moment even more
special, this was all during a segment where Waititi highlighted the honorees
of this year’s annual Governors Awards, which included legendary Cherokee actor
Wes Studi.
The awards for Best Original Score and Best Original Song
were presented by the trio of Brie Larson, Gal Gadot, and Sigourney Weaver. Larson
and Gadot kicked things off by honoring Weaver for her legendary turn as Ellen
Ripley in the Alien films, which earned her an Oscar nomination for Best
Actress in 1986 and effectively paved the way for other iconic cinematic
heroines including Larson’s Captain Marvel and Gadot’s Wonder Woman. Weaver
then followed that up with the proclamation that “all women are superheroes”.
Not only that, but Weaver also announced that the trio was planning on
starting their own fight club where the winner will get “a lifetime supply of
deodorant, sushi, and tequila” while the loser “gets to answer questions from
journalists about how it feels to be a woman in Hollywood”. Finally, to top off
this incredibly uplifting segment, the three announced that the performances of
the nominees for Best Original Score would be led by the first female conductor
in Oscars history, Eímear
Noone. It was only fitting, then, that the Oscar would ultimately go to a
female composer.
It’s basically become a running joke at this point about how
the Oscars often try to condense their notoriously long ceremonies by limiting
the length of their winners’ acceptance speeches. Over the years, however,
there have been some notable examples of winners that have defied that infamous
send-off music and this year’s ceremony gave us one of the greatest cases of
this (albeit without the music, but the point still stands…) by way of the
Oscars crowd when Parasite was announced as this year’s Best Picture winner.
After a speech from producer Kwak Sin-Ae, the lights started to dim to signal
the end of the show… that is, until the crowd started chanting “UP! UP! UP!” so
that executive producer Miky Lee would get her chance to speak as well. Thus,
this quite arguably became the definitive moment in Parasite’s historic
night as it perfectly exemplified how nearly everyone in that room was beyond ecstatic
for all its success.
MUSICAL
PERFORMANCES
Lastly, before we get to the ‘Speeches’ segment of this
post, let’s go over the musical performances that I haven’t mentioned yet. As
usual, the performances of the Best Original Song nominees were all terrific,
with soulful performances of Breakthrough’s “I’m Standing with You” by
Chrissy Metz and Harriet’s “Stand Up” by Cynthia Erivo and energetic
performances of Toy Story 4’s “I Can’t Let You Throw Yourself Away” by
Randy Newman and Rocketman’s “(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again” by Elton John.
But when it comes to these nominees, the most unique performance of the night
was for Frozen II’s “Into the Unknown”. Instead of just having Idina
Menzel perform the song as usual while being backed by Aurora, who provided ‘The
Voice’ in the film that leads Elsa on her journey, Menzel was also backed by
nine of her character’s international voice actresses. This included Maria Lucia
Heiberg Rosenberg (Danish), Willemijn Verkaik (German), Takako Matsu (Japanese),
Carmen Sarahí (Spanish),
Lisa Stokke (Norwegian), Katarzyna Łaska (Polish), Anna Buturlina (Russian),
Gisela (Castilian), and Gam Wichayanee (Thai). To reference the opening
comments made by Josh Gad prior to the performance, it beautifully highlighted how
the film has managed to reach audiences all over the world. Finally, there was,
of course, the In Memoriam segment, with this year’s version of it being
paired with a performance of The Beatles’ “Yesterday” by Billie Eilish and her
brother Finneas O’Connell. And while Eilish has since gone on record stating
that she felt her performance was undermined considerably due to illness, it was
still a fitting accompaniment for what is always the most somber moment of any
Oscars ceremony.
And now let’s delve
into some of the most memorable speeches from this year’s Oscar winners…
GREAT SPEECHES
*Brad Pitt got things
started on an excellent note by recognizing the nature of his role as stuntman
Cliff Booth in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and honoring everyone
involved in the stunt industry (which, yes, still doesn’t have its own Oscar
category). Pitt even managed to get a nice jab in at the expense of the U.S. Senate
by remarking that the 45 seconds of speech time he was being given was more
than what they gave John Bolton at Donald Trump’s impeachment trial.
*In her acceptance
speech for Best Supporting Actress, Laura Dern paid tribute to her heroes… who
just so happened to be her parents Diane Ladd and Bruce Dern.
*Best Sound Editing
winner Donald Sylvester noted how Ford v Ferrari was one of the last
films made by 20th Century Fox prior to the studio’s renaming as 20th
Century Studios following its purchase by Disney (though it’s technically not the
last to come from the Fox era). Thus, he proceeded to pay tribute to
several key figures who worked for the studio, including former president Emma
Watts who had just resigned from her position a few weeks prior. He also
remarked that director James Mangold should’ve gotten a Best Director
nomination and proclaimed that he was willing to break off a piece of his trophy
for him.
*Hildur Guðnadóttir
became the first woman to win the Oscar for Best Original Score since the category
was reworked in 2000 after years of being separated into ‘Dramatic’ and ‘Comedy’
genres (officially, she was the first female winner since Anne Dudley in 1997
for her work on The Full Monty). Her victory was timed perfectly with the
fact that the award was presented by the trio of Brie Larson, Gal Gadot, and Sigourney
Weaver and that samplings of all the nominated scores had been performed by the
first female conductor in Oscars history. Likewise, she concluded her speech by
encouraging all women “who hear the music bubbling within” to “speak up… we
need to hear your voices”.
*Joaquin Phoenix had
one of the most emotional speeches of the night when he accepted the Oscar for
Best Actor. He began by remarking that the award did not make him feel superior
in any way compared to his fellow nominees. He then proceeded to speak about
some of the various bits of social activism that he’s been involved in over the
years, including his efforts as an advocate for animal rights and the continued
fight against various social injustices. Finally, he concluded with a tribute
to his late brother River Phoenix by quoting a lyric that he had written prior
to his death in 1993; “Run to the rescue with love and peace will follow”.
Finally, let’s
celebrate the one… the only… Bong Joon-Ho!
Thanks to Parasite’s
four Oscar wins, Bong Joon-Ho had one of the most successful nights for any
individual filmmaker in Oscars history. In fact, he came very close to tying Walt
Disney’s record of 4 individual wins at the 26th Academy Awards in
1954 (since Best International Feature Film is credited to the country that the
film is from, Joon-Ho was only credited for Best Picture, Best Director, and
Best Original Screenplay). Nevertheless, this paved the way for several great speeches
from the newly minted Oscar winner…
*His acceptance
speech for Best Original Screenplay was generally straight-forward but it did highlight
the fact that this was the first Oscar that’s ever been given to a film from
South Korea. Obviously, it wasn’t going to be the last…
*He began his speech
for Best International Feature Film by commenting on how this was the first
year that the award was known as such after years of being called ‘Best Foreign
Language Film’. The Academy decided to change it back in April 2019 and Joon-Ho
remarked that he was happy to be its first recipient under the new name while
also applauding the forward-thinking mindset behind the decision. He also took
the time to honor his cast and crew, who were promptly given a round of
applause, and proclaimed that he was “ready to drink tonight”.
*But perhaps his greatest
speech came during his win for Best Director. For starters, he joked that he
thought he “was done for the day” after the Best International Feature award
and was “ready to relax”. But then he proceeded to properly honor all his
fellow nominees in the Best Director category. He began by quoting Martin Scorsese
(“The most personal is the most creative”), which then led to a full-blown
standing ovation for the legendary director. He then thanked Quentin Tarantino for
continually highlighting his films amongst his favorites of the year so that he
could become more well-known in the U.S. And after honoring Todd Phillips and
Sam Mendes, Joon-Ho remarked that if the Academy would allow him, he would grab
a chainsaw (a “Texas Chainsaw”, specifically), cut the trophy into five pieces,
and split it amongst the five directors. Finally, as an update to his “ready to
drink” comment from earlier, he noted that he “will drink until next morning”.
And that concludes
Rhode Island Movie Corner’s annual Oscars recap post. I recognize that this was
quite arguably the longest of these that I’ve done to date (hence why it took
so long to finish it), so I appreciate you all for sticking it out with me on
this one. Clearly, I had quite a lot to talk about for this one, including
those, let’s be frank, ‘awful’ Honest Ballots. As always, be sure to sound off
in the comments below with some of your thoughts about this year’s ceremony. Is
the ‘no host’ option still working out just fine? Do you think that Parasite’s
big wins mean good things for this show going forward? And will the internet
ever truly follow through with its claims that we shouldn’t take award shows
like this that seriously?
