Does the world need the Oscar ceremony? So apart from a few happy ones who hold a price in hands at the end of the almost four -hour award? Here Celebristies celebrate themselves in a marathon show and in the end the accusation always waits that the wrong film or star has been awarded.
The academy could not answer the question of why the Oscars are not fought down to a press release for years. That was the impression that the last awards left. The producer team stored categories. Hosts did it and stopped them again. Fantasy prices that run counter to the nature of the Academy Awards were introduced.
The Oscar ceremonies had the appearance of a task in which everyone involved forgot why it is on the to-do list. That was different with the 97th Academy Awards, which took place on Monday night. Which is why the best award has been out of the for years.
A fantasy masterpiece pretended the guiding principle of the award
It began with the first picture of the award, a scene from the magician of OZ, in which Dorothy puts her red glitter shoes together to return home, in her beloved Kansas. Anyone who looked at the show was able to confuse them with a three and a half hour tribute, so often songs from the magician of Oz, The Wiz-the magical country and Wicked Grallert.
The fantasy masterpiece of the magicians of OZ and its successors not only gave the music, but also the topic for the award: “There’s no place like home”, so “it is nowhere as beautiful as at home”. This “at home” is Los Angeles, which was battered by fire, which was paid homage to assembly right from the start. The home is also the medium of film itself. This Awards ceremony has celebrated the love of film and filmmaking as much as it has been in years.

Conan O’Brien was the perfect Oscar host
The most important step in this direction was the choice of the moderator. Conan O’Brien replaced Jimmy Kimmel. Kimmels awarded were characterized by an indifferent slacker vibe that contrasted with the Hollywood self-centerism. In contrast, O’Brien is a man-made Duracell hare. He does everything for a laugh, even if he has to suck acid out of the bottle. O’Brien fueled the award of unusual enthusiasm. There was obviously desire for one of the most ungrateful jobs in the show business and the nominated films.

Kimmel’s monologue from last year worked on superficialities, he reached back on Penis and drug jokes via Robert Downey Jr. and criticized the average length of the nominated films. O’Brien, on the other hand, expressed his love for the conclave and Like a Complete Unknown, before he came to punch lines about the Catholic Church and Bob Dylan. Even the one joke about the runtime of the brutalist ended that the film was Fortunately Feeling endless – he found it so good.
Kimmel encountered Oscar films as if at best they were staggered and in the worst something that he had never heard of until a week ago. O’Brien was given as an Oscar, film and movie. This is all the more important as a moderator: speak to us not only to us, but also for us, but also for us, the audience. In a sea of film stars they are the outsiders: inside.
Conan O’Brien cited the body horror from The Substance in a one-player. He sang a song in the style of a Marx Brothers film of the 30s (with the sandworm from Dune: Part Two on the piano!). And he presented a groundbreaking invention in another one -player: Imagine you could stream – but in a hall with strangers and a huge canvas!

The Oscars have finally answered a question: Why is there a award?
In the rest of the show it sat down Leitmotif of the award Fort. This time the work of those who are not on the poster was emphasized in the categories. Costume design and camera received their own laudation from five stars on stage. Clips gave artists: inside the various trades. Deceased stars like Gene Hackman and Quincy Jones received a separate tribute.
About the right to exist of a James Bond tribute that felt almost as long as no time to die can certainly be argued, but there are worse things in the Oscar-Binge life than to fill the “Live and Let” the “Nacho shell.
Anora director Sean Baker, who won four Oscars in the course of the evening, recorded the Oscar theme of the night and kept praised on the independent film and the cinema as an institution. Not with a heavy, worn mood, but with a smile on the face. This Oscar ceremony was as optimistic as it has been for a long time. Probably because she was finally able to answer a question about her right to exist. The Oscars have their heart and with it found their great love again. And these are not switch -on quotas, but films and everyone they make.
