It was the Oscars last night, if you missed it, let’s be honest it’s boring and on very late, then i’ll let you know that low-budget comedy Anora triumphed at this year’s Oscars winning five Oscars, including best picture and best actress while Adrien Brody took home best actor.
Anora, which follows Mikey Madison’s sex worker who gets married to the son of a Russian oligarch.
Host Conan O’Brien spoke about how, during a difficult time for the city as it’s rebuilt after the recent wildfires, award shows “can seem self-indulgent and superfluous” but he said it was an important night to shine a light on those behind the camera who help to make movie magic happen. He said: “Even in the face of terrible wildfires and divisive politics, the work continues.”
Last year’s Oscars were led by major wins for Christopher Nolan’s blockbuster biopic Oppenheimer which took home seven awards including best picture.

Host Conan O’Brien joked about the Anora’s success throughout the night at this particular political moment. “I guess Americans are excited to see someone finally stand up to a powerful Russian,” he said to huge applause.
