‘Everything, Everywhere All At Once’ dominated the 95th Academy Awards by winning seven major trophies including this year’s Best Picture in an awarding ceremony held on Sunday.
The film also bagged the best actress, best director, best editing, best supporting actor, best supporting actress and best original screenplay awards respectively. It was nominated in 11 categories.
Directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert took home the directing prize.
Michelle Yeoh won the Best Actress award making her the first Asian woman to bag the title.
“For all the little boys and girls who look like me watching tonight, this is a beacon of hope and possibility. And ladies, don’t let anyone ever tell you you are past your prime,” she said.
Ke Huy Quan won best supporting actor for his role in “Everything Everywhere”.
“When I started as a kid [I used] my birth name Ke Huy Quan. I remember when it got really tough my manager told me that maybe it would be easier if you had an American-sounding name. And I was so desperate for a job that I would do anything… When I decided to get back into acting, the very first thing that I wanted to do was to go back to my birth name. Tonight to see Ariana open that envelope and say ‘Ke Huy Quan’ that was a really, really special moment for me. The first image that I had in my mind was my mom,” he said.
