The Ellises have a next-day chat about the 97th Academy Awards in our 2025 Oscars Post-View. The year 2024 was not a banner 12 months for film, but, in the end, the voters pointed at independent film Anora the most often, giving it 5 trophies…including Best Picture. Sean Baker set a record by winning 4 Oscars (at least, in the types of categories in which he won), with 2of those being for his screenplay and for his direction. The awards were spread around fairly well beyond that (8 out of 10 Best Picture nominees won at least 1 piece of gold), although the show didn’t wow or move us too much. It was just an okay---and very long---broadcast. Conan O’Brien was funny, as we expected he would be, while the speeches got serious & political at times…as we expected they would. Some people, though, thought they had all night to ramble on up there. In any case, fire up our 33-ish minutes of post-Oscars analysis here on Have You Ever Seen.
