Oscar 2022

This year’s Academy Awards have concluded, honoring the greatest films and performances of 2021. CODA, an English-language version of the French film La Famille Bélier, won the best picture, beating out Dune and The Power of the Dog. Will Smith won best lead actor, and Jessica Chastain won best lead actress in the acting categories.

Dune and The Power of the Dog walked away with a slew of technical honors, including best editing, visual effects, cinematography, production design, original soundtrack, and sound — a total of six. Jane Campion made Oscar history with The Power of the Dog, becoming only the third woman to win the best director.

The ceremony started off with a relatively uneventful start, but the finale included some of the most high-profile turmoil in the show’s history. On stage, Will Smith seemed to hit Chris Rock for making a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.
