Review of The Oscars

Haven't missed an "Oscars" telecast in many years and I must say the "95th" Academy Awards went off without a slap and Jimmy Kimmel was very funny and super as the host! True to form the show ran over and a little long the music with Lady Gaga and the moving memorial tribute by Lenny Kravitz was moving and touching. Plus the funny "Cocaine Bear" skit had you asking yourself did director and actress Elizabeth Banks trip over the bear!? Finally after many years of work Jamie Lee Curtis(my favorite scream queen 1978's "Halloween") won an Oscar a surprise for best supporting actress, yet she deserved one finally as she was respected by her peers and she gave an emotional and moving speech even thanking late acting parents legends Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis! Jamie you all won together! And then Ke Huy Quan and Michelle Yeoh win respectively for best supporting actor and best actress as both finally got their due proving that comebacks are possible and that they were not past their primes. And you guessed it "Everything, Everywhere, all at Once" wins best picture as the imaginative, transformation, dimensional, film mixed with comedy and action wrapped all in love and in the moment was to much for the academy to ignore(7 total wins for the film). In a surprise somewhat upset win it in a comeback for Brendan Fraser as he upset Austin Butler for best actor as voters went with an overweight shut in man struggling with connection over legendary Elvis, I myself liked Austin and the "Elvis" performance better, yet Fraser had a character that showed courage, and will power so it's okay that Brendan won best actor. Overall good well done show as the third time was a charm for Jimmy and it was nice to see Hollywood honor the winners who all had come backs.
