The 2023 Oscars is finally here. The film party organized by the Hollywood Academy delights us, year after year, with iconic moments like Will Smith‘s famous slap last year. With his return, this time more peaceful, have come some of the Academy’s most eye-catching awards.
The film that has come out best is, without a doubt, Everything Everywhere All at Once. Basically, it has won everything: from best film to best editing to directors and performances. And Michelle Yeoh, despite not starting as the favorite, has also achieved what seemed impossible: she is the best actress of the year.
The importance of representation
Michelle Yeoh has beaten Cate Blanchett and Ana de Armas as best actress. It was something that very few expected but that she certainly deserves thanks to her performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once. In her speech, the actress did not want to leave out the obvious: that representation is the most important thing.
A film almost entirely interpreted by Asians has been the most awarded, and also has won the award for both her and Ke Huy Quan, her co-star also of Chinese origin. This is what she gave most importance in her speech, although she did not want to leave out everything that this award has meant for her and the film.
