In addition, “Everything Everywhere All At Once” won three of the big acting awards, Michelle Yeoh for Best Actress, Ke Huy Quan for Best Supporting Actor and Jamie Lee Curtis for Best Supporting Actress. “There are about seven different genres in “Everything Everywhere All At Once.” It’s sci-fi. I look forward them to continuing to do outstanding work for that reason, because they approach everything with this spirit of invention.” "He's the person who told me I was a storyteller and filmmaker before I could say that myself and I would not be here without him." And that vision has really allowed them to redefine genres really,” Freeman said. They were magnetic together," Freeman recalled. In addition, Kwan is the third Asian to win original screenplay. "It was the same kind of humor and thoughtfulness that is reflected in “Everything Everywhere All At Once” that infected everyone around them.” “They were like peas in a pod, I would say, during their time in class.

[best original screenplay](https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/mar/12/everything-everywhere-all-at-once-oscars-2023-winner-awards-best-picture), best directors and best picture (much to the appreciation of the crowd – no film drew close to as many cheers, “awws” or standing ovations as Everything Everywhere All at Once). As I wobble to the exit, I run into a friend from college who worked as a writing assistant on the show. She practically floats on and off the stage, a cloud of celebration trailing in her wake – cameras, assistants, well-wishers and a line of people to personally congratulate her before she slips, still surrounded, toward the exit.

In the same way that the Oscars, as an annual awards show, struggles to appeal to both blockbuster fans and film nerds happy to see all the technical categories restored to the telecast, the Oscars, as an in-person event, strikes a weird balance between television production and party.

In the multiverse of ways my first trip to the Academy Awards could’ve played out, there was a version where I remembered I had a vehicle pass, my Uber made the correct stop and I wasn’t barricaded from the entrance. The energy is nervous and fizzy, wine glasses bottoming up, as an overhead announcer counts down to the telecast in five-minute increments starting 50 minutes in advance. Post-carpet merge, I watch Zoe Saldana’s husband watch Zoe Saldana take a photo in one of those 360-degree hi-def cameras, as another Oscars usher urges us (civilians) forward, lest we be a “fire hazard”. The walls and ceiling are undulating waves of red fabric, the One replete with tourists gawking for a glimpse at a celebrity and passersby seemingly confused as to why there are hordes of police cars, but still. My Saint Laurent heels, sourced from a friend’s mom in New York the day prior – which was less than a day after I learned I was going to the Oscars as a last-minute replacement for a reporter with a visa snafu – are beautiful, but not the best for navigating the sidewalks, fences and crowds around Hollywood Boulevard.
