97th Oscar Awards Ceremony in Los Angeles Late Night

The 97th Oscar awards ceremony at the Academy of Film Arts and Sciences will begin late at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. Among the favorites are the films « Emilia Perez », « Brutalist », « Conclava ».

Jacques Odiar's « Emilia Perez » received the most, 13 Oscar nominations. That musical odyssey about the sex change of a Mexican drug trafficker who becomes a woman received the most nominations, in front of « Brutalist », a story of the life of a Jewish immigrant and the musical « Wicked » who received ten nominations.

The biographical film about Bob Dylan « Complete Stranger » and the Vatican thriller, Conclava, received eight nominations.

The film « Emilia Perez », with 13 Oscar nominations and the Cannes Film Festival Award, has become a achievement outside the non -English -speaking area with the most nominations in the history of the Academy of Film Arts and Sciences.

Five Oscar nominations have received another French film, « Substance » directed by Coral Farget, in which Demi Moore plays a former Hollywood star dependent on a rejuvenating serum. That film was nominated among other things in the categories of the best film, the best director and the best actress.

This year's ceremony will pay tribute to firefighters due to heavy fires that hit Los Angeles in January and therefore Oscar nominations were posted online and were delayed twice.

This year, a new feature will be that the Oscars will not hold speeches for more than 45 seconds.

The ceremony, like every year, will be broadcast by the US television network ABC, while comedian Conan O'Brien will be the first host of the ceremony.

Last year's big winner was Christopher Nolan's « Openheimer », which won seven Oscars, including Best Director, Best Male Actor and Supporting Actor.
