In an upset, ‘Green Book’ wins Best Picture at Oscars

The Hindu  

The segregation-era road-trip drama Green Book was crowned Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards on Sunday, handing Hollywood’s top award to a film seen as a feel-good throwback by some and ridiculed as an outdated inversion of Driving Miss Daisy by others. It’s genuinely quite stressful,” said a staggered Colman, who later turned to Close to say she was her idol, “And this is not how I wanted it to be.” Bohemian Rhapsody, which kicked off the ABC telecast with a performance by Queen, won four awards despite pans from many critics and sexual assault allegations against its director, Bryan Singer, who was fired in mid-production. Following Queen, Tina Fey alongside Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph welcomed the Dolby Theatre audience to “the one-millionth Academy Awards.” Rudolph summarized a rocky Oscar preamble that featured numerous missteps and backtracks by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences- “There is no host, there won’t be a popular movie category and Mexico is not paying for the wall.” The trio then presented best supporting actress to Regina King for her pained matriarch in Barry Jenkins’ James Baldwin adaptation If Beale Street Could Talk. As she came off the stage, Cooper had his arm around Gaga as she asked, “Did I nail it?” Best documentary went to Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin’s Free Solo, which chronicles rock climber Alex Honnold’s famed, free solo ascent of Yosemite’s El Capitan, a 3,000-foot wall of sheer granite, without ropes or climbing equipment.
