Oppenheimer, Poor Things and Killers of the Flower Moon Universal Studios/Apple TV+/Searchlight Pictures
The 2024 Academy Awards celebrated the best in movies but one film came out on top, walking away with more accolades than the rest.
Oppenheimer came out on top, winning seven awards during the awards show on Sunday, March 10.
“I think any of us who make movies know that you kind of dream of this moment, you know you do, right?” Oppenheimer producer Emma Thomas said while accepting Best Picture. “I could deny it, but I have been dreaming about this moment for so long, but it seemed so unlikely that it would ever actually happen, and now I’m standing here and everything’s kind of gone out of my head.”
Jimmy Kimmel hosted the 96th annual ceremony, which took place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. Tons of A-listers walked the red carpet in hopes of taking home a coveted gold statue, but not everyone came out victorious.
