Oscars 2021 are awarded, who are the winners? The 93rd award ceremony of the prestigious film awards, which took place at various venues, passed without any major surprises. As expected, the Oscar for the best film was taken home by the modern western Nomadland, which also won the Oscar for the director and the leading female role. Chinese-American director Chloé Zhao became the second woman in history to win an Academy Award for directing, while Frances McDormand won her third Oscar (her fourth as producer of Nomadland).
A bigger departure than expected was the Best Actor Oscar he won that night Anthony Hopkins for his role as an elderly man with dementia in the drama Father. This made him the oldest Oscar winner for a leading role in history. They won acting Oscars for their supporting roles Daniel Kaluuya, who portrayed Fred Hampton, one of the leaders of the Black Panther political party, in the drama Judas and the Black Messiah, and the best supporting actress went to a South Korean actress Yuh-Jung Youn, who portrayed the strict, argumentative grandmother of a Korean family who moves to America in the drama Minari.

The award ceremony was opened by the actress and director Regina King, which related to the recent trial of Derek Chauvin. "I know you want to reach for the remote when Hollywood preaches to you, but as a mother of a black son, I know what it's like to live in fear - money and fame don't change that." The evening was otherwise quite serious, as the performers' speeches mainly touched on social justice and equality. In fact, the evening was serious to the point that there was not a single live music spot in it. Not even with a traditional contribution In memoriam, which is dedicated to members of the film industry who have died in the past year (Joel Schumacher, Christopher Plummer, George Segal, Shirley Knight, Fred Willard, Kim Ki-duk, Carl Reiner, Brian Denehy, Jerry Stiller, Sean Connery, Chadwick Boseman). Dancing provided a slightly lighter atmosphere Glenn Close, who danced to the song Da Butt from Spike Lee's School Daze.
