Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role

And the Oscar goes to… Laura Dern – Marriage Story. Not a surprise by any means, but well deserved after a career full of award-worthy performances. I still would’ve loved if Florence Pugh won one.

Sound Editing

And the Oscar goes to… Ford v Ferrari. This and Sound Mixing probably screw up a lot of bets. I can’t be the only one who thought that 1917 would win both. Or am I?

Sound Mixing

And the Oscar goes to… 1917. At least I got this bet right. I wish Ad Astra would’ve won, just so that it could’ve be Academy Award Winner Ad Astra.

Cinematography

And the Oscar goes to… 1917. Very well deserved, but I would’ve loved if The Lighthouse had won.

And the Oscar goes to… Ford v Ferrari. I think this one surprised a lot of people. I can’t be the only one who thought that The Irishman would win this. But I missed Ford v Ferrari in cinemas, so I can’t say much about it.

Visual Effects

And the Oscar goes to… 1917. I mean The Irishman, Avengers: Endgame, Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker?! If there was ever a time to go outside the box with the technical stuff at the Academy Awards, it was here.
