Last Sunday, March 15, the 98th Academy Awards, the Oscars took place. These awards are designed to celebrate and acknowledge achievements from the film industry. Here are some of the most notable awards.
Actor/Actress in a Leading Role:
Actor: Michael B. Jordan (“Sinners”)
Actress: Jessie Buckley (“Hamnet”)
Timothee Chalamet was projected to win but after his controversial comment regarding ballet and opera as “dying arts” and how “nobody cares about [these arts] anymore”, he received great backlash. These comments may have hurt him in the voting polls, potentially leading Michael B. Jordan to win.

This film starred Leonardo DiCaprio, was a massive hit, ending up with six awards by the end of the night.
