And The Oscar Goes To..... (93rd Academy Award Winners)
Now, here are the winners of the 93rd Academy Awards.
I was hoping that Chadwick Boseman (star of Black Panther) would receive a posthumous win for Best Actor for his final film role in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, which would have made a touching final salute for the late actor. Unfortunately, the Oscar now goes to Anthony Hopkins for his performance in The Father and for becoming the oldest actor to receive that award. I also felt the same way about Wolfwalkers, which, in my opinion, would have won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature if it weren't for the Pixar film Soul taking the gold.
