Oscars 2023: A24 cements indie powerhouse status with ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ win

Stephanie Hsu in “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” A24, the studio behind best picture winner “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” already had an enthusiastic following for its highbrow films and edgy, youthful tastemaker reputation. That cinephile cred was on full display at Sunday night’s Oscars ceremony, where the press-shy New York indie darling netted its second best picture victory, six years after its upset win for “Moonlight.” “Everything Everything All at Once,” a frenetic multiversal, multigenerational story about a struggling Chinese American immigrant family, won seven statuettes at the 95th Academy Awards, making it the winningest film of the night. A24’s box office winners have included heady filmmaker-driven horror pictures and the nervy Adam Sandler thriller “Uncut Gems.” The “Everything Everywhere” win comes at a time when Hollywood is going through a wave of change. Last year, Apple TV+ became the first streaming service to win best picture with its feel-good family drama “CODA.” Awards Here’s the list of 2023 Oscar winners The 2023 Oscar winners include “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” Brendan Fraser, Michelle Yeoh and “All Quiet on the Western Front.” A24 is a lean but growing operation, employing 200 people in the U.S. and the U.K. One of its founders, Katz, has a background in banking, having worked at Guggenheim. MGM won adapted screenplay for Sarah Polley’s “Women Talking.” Apple — last year’s best picture winner — took home one Oscar for animated short film with “The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse.”
