New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Favorite "CODA," about a deaf fishing family and their hearing daughter, won best picture at Sunday's 94th Academy Awards.
Will Smith and
Jessica Chastain took home the top acting prizes and Jane Campion won for best director for her Western "The Power of the Dog."
The Academy Awards returned to the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood and had a host (three of them, actually) for the first time in four years.
Amy Schumer,
Regina Hall and
Wanda Sykes co-hosted the festivities, which had strict COVID-19 protocols in place: Guests were required to show proof of vaccination, as well as undergo several rounds of testing.
There weren't too many surprise winners, as a lot of the categories were hotly contested, and only a few really felt like shoo-ins. Encanto predictably took Best Animated Film, Cruella won Best Costume Design, and the Supporting Actor and Actress categories were taken by CODA's Troy Kotsur and West Side Story's
Ariana DeBose.
