Saddened to see Cannes follow on Venice's footsteps and not have a single Latin American title in competition.

Incredible things happening in Aberdonian journalism today

🥴

This is 100% made up right

I can’t stop laughing at this oh my god

She’s on fire

Bridget Bardot 😭

Queen

The night started strong and got significantly weaker from there. Still the happiest about Madigan. Onto 2027 ✨

The Oscars ushering Mikey Madison onto the stage to “Young and Beautiful”

I take that back

Fascinating to see Priyanka Chopra Jonas’s desperation unravel in a split second

JAVIER BARDEM YOU’LL FOREVER LIVE IN HISTORY

Eight Oscar wins for Warner Bros. so far with several virtually guaranteed to come, continuing the best critical and financial year for a studio in decades. The only reason it's getting sold is the mountain of debt after 3 failed mergers, a problem it's solving with another debt-fueled merger.

I am still reeling Rachel Morrison didn’t win for MUDBOUND

😭😭😭🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

The Matt Berry voiceover made that Marilyn Monroe exhibition clip look like an SNL sketch

An orchestra playing all the scores live in a beautifully seamless mash up!? Yes! YES!

Playing out the documentarians behind a doc on the war in Ukraine to Seal’s “Kiss From a Rose” is… A choice

Geeta Gandbhir is nominated in both short doc and feature doc!? Did that ever happen before?

I had not noticed Grogu’s shocked reaction and am now embarrassingly endeared

“She’s appeared in 74 movies. And he’s appeared in 74 movies last year.” One of my favourite presenter introductions of the evening for Sigourney Weaver and Pedro Pascal.

Not playing a clip for Udo Kier is insanity.

POV: we’re cooking burgers

Some of these presenter bits are frankly atrocious this year. What is going on.

We need something to shake off this odd vibe. They had the Sinners musical number way too early. We needed it about now.

Timothée Chalamet catching strays

I wish Matt Berry would be the Oscars announcer every single year until the end of Matt Berry times

I love the five-presenter format for the first-ever Best Casting line-up announcement. A perfect choice, dedicating the time to honour a craft that should’ve had its category many years ago.

Matt Berry pronouncing Wagner Moura I am realising dreams I never even realised I had

Jacob Elordi’s mother is so beautiful and it’s so lovely how she stands up to cheer every single winner alongside her son.

This ensemble alone was worth the Oscar, one of my favourite costumes of recent years

It must have taken the equivalent of Netflix’s failed WB deal profits to convince Anna Wintour to do this bit

Chef’s kiss timing

Diane Warren found crying in a ditch

Oh, man, Timothée Chalamet is checking his watch. I’m a little sad watching it.

The way Ed Harris looked at Amy Madigan when her name was read was one of the most beautiful things. Just sheer love and pride and trust and oh my god I’m already welling up.

Ohhhh so we’re starting with a BANG

Conan not bringing up The Secret Agent once in the opening

Love Jacob Elordi vigorously applauding and cheering the Ted Sarandos joke while at the Oscars playing the titular character for Netflix’s biggest film of the night. Incredible.

That was the best Oscars opening in years, great stuff

I’m watching the ABC Oscars livestream and, American friends, what the hell are these medication ads? I’m getting whiplash from going from Ethan Hawke to anal bleeding to Wunmi Mosaku to excessive hair loss

I just sent you the spooky funeral Chloe Zhao forward it to 7 people or you’ll get 7 years bad luck

Our father who lies in heaven, thank you for this outstanding head of hair

One of my favourite things about Jafar Panahi is his persistent use of mousy little sunglasses that make him look like he’s judging literally anything or person or situation around him

The hairy leg from The Secret Agent has arrived at the Oscars

Thank you Norway

I’m still mad about the cat stuff but this is gorgeous

Obsessed with Joachim Trier posing like he’s the new Bond
