If the river makes a noise its because water is running. And if ‘Everything at once everywhere’ is getting so many awards everywhere, it would be quite rare if he did not culminate in the Oscars with a perfect work which only ‘Top Gun Maverick’ can cope with, which the media does not stop highlighting as the savior of cinema. The Daniels’ last movie triumph was in the actors union awards and the last prelude to the big day, the SAGwhere they literally took everything.
It’s everywhere
Except for Brendan Fraser, who won the best actor award for ‘The Whale’, and ‘Top Gun Maverick’ who did the same for his double cast (Tom Cruise not included I guess), the rest was for ‘Everything at once everywhere’: Best Actress (Michelle Yeoh), Best Supporting Actor (Ke Huy Quan)Best Supporting Actress (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Best Cast in a Motion Picture.
Yeoh and Quan they are the first Asian winners of their categories, and have become a symbol of the current renewal of Hollywood. It is more or less what the actor has said, who in addition to being the first to win, was the first Asian nominee in history: “It does not belong to me: this moment belongs to everyone who has asked for a change”. For his part, Yeoh has also made reference to diversity: “Thank you for your love, for your support, because I know that I compete against titans. Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is not just for me, it is for all the girls who are look like me.”
This weekend, to complete his triumphal walk, He also won at the PGA, the producers’ awards, which usually coincide with the Oscars: in previous years they awarded ‘CODA’, ‘Nomadland’, ‘Green book’ or even ‘The shape of water’. Come on, you would be smart if you put her as the winner in your pools, because, although it is true that she did not win the Golden Globe (it was for ‘Inisherin’s Worried Souls’), yes it has been gaining traction over the months.
At the SAGs, by the way, They also gave the prizes corresponding to televisionwho could not be more distributed: Sam Elliott (‘1883’), Jessica Chastain (‘George and Tammy’), Jeremy Allen White (‘The bear’), Jean Smart (‘Hacks’), Jason Bateman (‘Ozark’ ), Jennifer Coolidge (‘The white lotus’), the doubles of ‘Stranger things’ and the full cast of ‘The white lotus’ and ‘Abbott College’. A small screen much more distributed than the big one, there is no doubt.
