Emma Stone, what a delight and a wonder. (Thoroughly deserving #Oscars2024 win for her as best actress.)

Someone make a bromance with Nicholas Cage and Paul Giamatti.

Also love Slash just staying on stage even as everyone leaves and the stage empties.

That's Slash. Doing the guitar solo for I'm Just Ken. Glorious.

FINALLY

#Oscars2024 for sound design: The Zone of Interest. First Oscar for Johnnie Burn, and entirely and intensely deserving. That soundscape is the elegant, brilliant and the stuff of nightmares.

Wes Anderson wins #Oscars2024 for best live action short, for The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar. His first, no?

#Oscars2024 for cinematography for Oppenheimer. No surprise there. 'Please try shooting that hip new thing called celluloid.'~ Hoyte van Hoytema

Not sure an instrumental version of 'I'm Just Ken' is necessarily the best way to send the documentary winners off the stage, but on the plus side, Ken's coming!

'This is the first Oscar in Ukrainian history...but probably I'm the first director to come on this stage to say I wish I'd never made this film.'

#Oscars2024 for best documentary: 20 Days in Mariupol

How can you not awww at a moment like this? (Oscar for the best documentary short: The Last Repair Shop)

Whoever designed the visuals for the backdrop at the Oscars, you've done a beautiful job.

First award of the evening for Oppenheimer: Oscar for editing to Jennifer Lane (a woman editor takes the stage. Woohoo!). #Oscars2024
