Oscars 2023: The 95th Academy Awards

"An Irish Goodbye" has won the Oscar for best live action short film.

This movie is set on a farm in Northern Ireland where two estranged brothers are forced to spend time together following the death of their mother.

"Navalny" won the Academy Award for best documentary feature.

The CNN Film follows Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny through his political rise, attempted assassination and search to uncover the truth.

In his acceptance speech, filmmaker Daniel Roher thanked the Navalny family.

After Roher spoke, Alexey Navalny's wife Yulia Navalny said her husband "is in prison just for telling the truth" and "defending democracy."

Navalny, a Kremlin critic and activist, was sentenced to nine years in prison on fraud charges that he said were politically motivated.

The award for "Navalny" is the first Oscars win for CNN Films.

Some background: Dasha Navalnaya speaks to CNN about her father's condition on the champagne carpet at the 95th Academy Awards.

Jamie Lee Curtis appeared to be truly surprised upon hearing her name as best actress in a supporting role, yelling "shut up" from her seat when she was announced.

While Curtis has had a prolific career in film and television, making her an indelible Hollywood figure, this was her first Academy Awards nomination — and now, her first win.

In his acceptance speech after winning best supporting actor, Ke Huy Quan once again delivered an earnest and emotional speech, which spoke to never giving up on your dreams.

The former child star, who for years worked behind the camera after roles for him dried up, tearfully thanked his mother to start.

"My mom is 84 years old and she’s at home watching," he said. "Mom, I just won an Oscar."

He also thanked her for her sacrifices and paid tribute to his status as a former refugee.

He also paid tribute to his wife, Echo, whom he said "month after month, year after year for 20 years told me that one day my time will come."

"Dreams are something you have to believe in. I almost gave up on mine," he said. "To all of you out there, please keep your dreams alive."

Earlier on the red carpet, Quan mentioned that his family, including his brother whom he also thanked, had traveled from Houston to support him on Oscars night.

The actor has been the darling of the awards season as the comeback story of the year, moving many to tears with each of his wins.

Jamie Lee Curtis won the award for best actress in a supporting role for her performance in "Everything Everywhere All at Once" as Deirdre Beaubeirdre.

It's the beloved American actress' first Oscar, and it came shortly after her "Everything" co-star Ke Huy Quan won best supporting actor for his role in the film.

"I just won an Oscar," she said tearfully, acknowledging the "hundreds of people" who helped her get to this point.

Ke Huy Quan won the Oscar for best actor in a supporting role for his performance in "Everything Everywhere All at Once."

Huy Quan, who was a child actor in some iconic films like “The Goonies” and “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” is the first Vietnam-born actor to win the Oscar for an acting performance.

He’s also the first actor to win an Oscar for portraying a Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese-speaking character in his role as Waymond Wang.

Two of the people being credited with getting audiences back in the theater apparently have skipped the biggest night that celebrates movies.

Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel mentioned in his opening monologue that both Tom Cruise and James Cameron were not in attendance, though he joked that perhaps Cruise was there, dressed as nominee Judd Hirsch.

While Cruise's blockbuster "Top Gun: Maverick" is nominated for best film, Deadline reported the star was skipping the show because of work.

Meanwhile, Kimmel mentioned there was some speculation that Cameron sat this one out because he had not been nominated in the directing category for "Avatar: The Way of Water," which is also nominated for best film.

"Avatar" producer Jon Landau said on the red carpet (which was really champagne-colored) that Cameron was not coming for “personal reasons."

Guillermo Del Toro's "Pinocchio" took home the Academy Award for best animated feature. It was the first award announced of the night.

The filmmaker, who used stop-motion animation to create the latest "Pinocchio" adaptation, went on to thank his family and Netflix.

Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel jokes that if any audience member wants to incite violence or "get jiggy with it," in a reference to Will Smith's song, "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It," he's got backup.

Kimmel joked that they would have to get through Michelle Yeoh, Michael B. Jordan, Steven Spielberg and many others to get to him on stage.

Background: During 2022’s ceremony, Smith walked on stage at the Oscars and slapped Chris Rock, who was presenting at the time, after he made a joke about Smith’s wife’s shaved head.

Smith later apologized, but The Academy sanctioned the actor by banning him from attending the Oscars for the next 10 years.
