Alfonso Cuaróns ”Roma” took home three heavy Oscarsstayetter, but snuvades on the best film of the ”Green book”. Ludwig Göransson won for best film score for ”the Black Panther” at a gala that was marked by diversity and consensus.
– the ”Green book” is about love, that no matter how we look, we are the same people. This movie started out with Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali, said Peter Farrelly, who has directed the anti-racist feel good movie that takes place in a moist sixty characterised by fierce segregation.

kick-started the Queen is the world’s largest bachelorette with slagdängan “We will rock you” in the face of galapublik as diggade in expensive clothes – including a very light Javier Bardem and Bradley Cooper with brightened eyes. Queen with Adam Lambert as a substitute for the ikoniske Freddie Mercury – continued to dust off monsterhiten ”We are the champions,” which also became a fitting soundtrack for an evening that would elect a dozen new Oscarsvinnare.
If you look at the number of statuettes won the ”Bohemian rhapsody” Oscarsslaget with Rami Malek (known from the tv series ”Mr. Robot”) in the lead for best actor.
“I was perhaps not the obvious choice, but I guess it worked,” said Rami Malek in the evening’s understatement.
” We made a film about a gay man and the immigrants who tried to find their identity. Tonight, we pay tribute to Freddie Mercury, and this story. I am the son of egyptian immigrants, first generation american immigrants, my story is written now and I can’t be more thankful, ” said Malek very touched.
the heavier the statuettes, it was a dead heat between the ”Green book” and ”Roma” which had three each. While the ”Green book” took home best film, best original screenplay and best supporting actor (Mahershala Ali), went to Alfonso Cuarón home with the Oscar for best director, best cinematography and best foreign language film – the first mexican film ever, the colour of the to the best foreign language film.
” I myself grew up with foreign movies – ”Citizen Kane”, ”Shark”, ”Rashomon” and ”the Godfather”, ironiserade Alfonso Cuarón and quoted the legendary French film director Claude Chabrol:
– a question about The French new wave, he replied that there are no waves – just sea. This gala tonight shows that we are all part of the same sea, ” said Cuarón as a mild protest against Trump’s fixation on building a wall against Mexico.

prisutdelaren Javier Bardem took the opportunity to pika Trump’s plans – but in a more open way:
” It is not possible to build walls against the talent and the arts, said Javier Bardem.
91:e Academy write-up in film history as a good, effective but surprisingly humorless gala that began with a promising introduction of Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph – the former two have been masterful Golden Globe-hostesses – but the trio became the most a weird compromise that only accentuated the lack of a traditional host and galalots.
The funniest joke about Netflix (”soon my microwave to make the movie”) gave us a taste, but quickly became pretty much dead, given that ”Roma” has not really made his expected triumph.
Even if the ceremony was suffering from the lack of a cohesive force in the form of a sharp galavärd, so was marked the evening, ”peace, love and understanding” – quite contrary to the virulent political climate in a segregated united states.
also became a strong manifestation of diversity. Four years ago trendade hashtagen #Oscarssowhite – as a protest against the white, galan.
In the year there was a real change in the real with several statuettes to the movie with the afro-american mind: from the superhjältedramat ”Black Panther”, who received three statuettes, including one to the Swedish musikgeniet Ludwig Göransson, a skådespelarpris (best supporting actress) Regina King of ”If Beale street could talk” and an expected best male birollspris to Mahershala Ali of ”the Green book”.
A positive trend for Hollywood, and a receipt for the mighty Oscarsakademin finally characterized by greater diversity. It hides, however, is not the fact that the winner of the ”Green book” of quality and artistic is sjumilasteg after the ”Roma”. Even the brilliant ”The favourite” received far too little attention in relation to their ten nominations.
Spike Lee, the protagonist of the african-american film, got its first Oscar as one of the four screenwriters to ”BlacKkKlansman”. The eccentric director began her acceptance speech with a brief recap of its own history and celebrated their ancestors. And took the opportunity to start the election campaign.

– the Presidential election in 2020 is around the corner – we need to make the moral choice between love and hate. Let’s do the right thing! said Spike Lee, who previously won an honorary Oscar.
the Evening’s most emotional moment was the duet, ”Shallow” between Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. The two stepped up on the stage hand-in-hand to convey a languorous version of the brottarhitten from “A star is born”. A galaversion that ended with the filmparet sat cheek to cheek in front of the wing, and exchanged a tender glance.
a Little later, Lady Gaga signed for an Oscar for his monsterhit played 386 million times on Spotify.
– Bradley – there is no one else in the world that I would have been able to sing this song with. Everything is about hard work. It’s not about winning, it’s about not giving up. If you have a dream so you have to continue the fight, rise again and go further, ” said an emotional Lady Gaga as hulkade through tacktalet.

and the lucky winner was, in turn, Olivia Colman, who won his first Oscar in the role of queen Anne in Yorgos Lanthimos ”The favourite”. Easy chockskadad stalked the british actor on the scene.
– It is actually quite a genuinely stressful situation, log Olivia Colman and continued with the evening’s most charming speech.
– This is helfestligt! Yorgos my best director in my best film. To be in this company of Emma Stone, and Rachel Weisz. And Glenn Close, you are my idol and it was not how I wanted it. But it will not happen again, ” added Colman, who takes over Claire Foys role as queen Elizabeth in the third season of ”The crown”.
Since last year’s gala was marked by a dramatic tittartapp have Oscarakademin made many controversial decisions which have been given to eat, for example, to introduce a special category for ”popular” movies.
But the question is whether the månghövdade the college does not have to introduce a akutstopp for the acceptance speech, in which family members are involved. This year, displaced mothers, the grandmothers, the grandmothers in tacktalen. Strange, that so many grateful children gathered in one place, but infinitely boring for all the viewers.
