Jane, before we do this one, i went to that oscars i this one, i went to that oscars carpet to inspect it, it is beige. It looks like the kind of thing your grandmother would have in the hall. As someone described it as the kind of carpet you would buy if you have a flat you would rent out to students, and i think that pretty much sums up the oscars red carpet. I am glad we have clarified that. A history making night, some significant films missing out as well. Who have you heard from and what have been some of the highlights for you . What have been some of the highlights for you . Well, the film Eve One Highlights for you . Well, the Film Everyone is highlights for you . Well, the Film Everyone is talking highlights for you . Well, the Film Everyone is talking about highlights for you . Well, the Film Everyone is talking about is everyone is talking about is Everything Everywhere all at once, a film that has broken all kinds of records deny. In the 95 year history of the oscars, no best picture winner had won three acting oscars, and that is exactly what the film did tonight. Best actress going to Michelle Yeoh. I managed to speak to her about an hour Michelle Yeoh. I managed to speak to Heraboutan Hourand Michelle Yeoh. I managed to speak to her about an hour and have ago she arrived at this party and she said this award was for so many people, and specifically said its for people who look like me. She knew she had made history by winning this. She is only the second person of colour to win best actress at the oscars, and the person who presented her with the only other person, halle berry who won in 2002 for monsters ball, and they got the shot of the two of their mocking of the stage, Michelle Yeoh oscar in hand, arm round halle berry, a very cynical moment a sort of the two walking off the stage. A very special moment. And ke huy quan, One Of The Best comebacks of all time, someone who was a refugee in hong kong for a year before moving to united states, starting Indiana Jones and the temple of doom and the greenies, which are mentioned in his oscar speech and then could not get any more work, from acting it was crazy rich agents, a Michelle Yeoh film, which inspired him to give it another go the goonies. The directors of the film are looking for someone for the role, saw a mean with him on twitter and thought what happened to that guy . I had forgotten about him. I wonder if he still acts, forgotten about him. I wonder if he stillacts, got forgotten about him. I wonder if he still acts, got in touch, found out he had an agent, offered him the part and this he has won an oscar. An incredible story. And the final one, Jamie Lee Curtis, Hollywood Royalty at the age of 64, had never been nominated for an oscar before and she two years she was winning, in his speech was she dedicated it to her mum and dad, who were very famous actors in their own right, but only were nominated for oscars, did not win, she looked up to the heavens, held her oscar up and said we have won an oscar. An absolutely fantastic moment. We have won an oscar. An absolutely fantastic moment. Thank you so much. We will let you fantastic moment. Thank you so much. We will let you get fantastic moment. Thank you so much. We will let you get some fantastic moment. Thank you so much. We will let you get some sleep fantastic moment. Thank you so much. We will let you get some sleep now. I we will let you get some sleep now. Our entertainment corresponding has been chatting to everyone at the Vanity Fair Party. History making, call nodded to some of it there. Lets start with the film that has dominated. It is a curious one, a visual feast, fabulous to look at, beautifully acted, and that is reflected in the awards, but it is a curious film, isnt it . I awards, but it is a curious film, isnt it . , isnt it . I would say is the craziest isnt it . I would say is the craziest best isnt it . I would say is the craziest best picture isnt it . I would say is the l craziest best picture winner isnt it . I would say is the craziest best picture winner in the history of the oscars. I was just looking at the list, you look at the list and you go to Out Of Africa and senders list and things are monumentalfilms . As senders list and things are monumental films . As this one of those . May be at his coming shift in what we perceive his oscar films. The last few winners, korda, parasite, dont forget the first Foreign Language film to win an oscar, things have been shifting and changing anyway traditional best picture winners look like coda. This won seven awards which puts it up this won seven awards which puts it up there with slum dog millionaire, shakespearean love, lawrence of arabia. As it is grandest that . People of our generation properly say its a bit bonkers, what is going on . Im not sure i could tell you what is going on, but it is spectacular, has elements of asian cinema, which is hugely popular and has been for years with the kung fu, martial arts elements, has great stars in it, Michelle Yeoh, huge star, its herfirst oscar which is actually a very powerful women in hollywood. A fantastic actress. For me the best bond women ever in Tomorrow Never Dies with pierce brosnan. I think she is brilliant and she is very good in this, but not a traditional best actress role. Cate blanchett who she beat in the role for tara, this is a lot of stunt work and a lot of that is the tools of acting tar. The daniels, a very rare Directing Pair to win, they have come up with this way of telling stories that is a little bit alien to me about very much of this generation. Alien to me about very much of this generation generation. Maybe it is a shift that needed to happen, generation. Maybe it is a shift that needed to happen, maybe generation. Maybe it is a shift that needed to happen, maybe the generation. Maybe it is a shift that needed to happen, maybe the academy in particular, the kind of people who vote in the oscars, we still have the debate about how diverse is that group . There is still a problem there may be this is a shift that needed to happen. I there may be this is a shift that needed to happen. Needed to happen. I think it is. There was needed to happen. I think it is. There was a needed to happen. I think it is. There was a moment needed to happen. I think it is. There was a moment in needed to happen. I think it is. There was a moment in the needed to happen. I think it is. There was a moment in the evening were All Quiet On The Western Front looked like what it could do at the baftas, suddenly making queen clean sweep, but then it did not. On a native comebacks, it was a great story, kicked off the evening very early on with a very emotional speech that set the tone for a very emotional evening, a very sweet evening after last years violence with the slap, the balance on live tv, the ceremony on this night was more of a warm hug. Lets tv, the ceremony on this night was more of a warm hug. More of a warm hug. Lets hear a little from more of a warm hug. Lets hear a little from ke more of a warm hug. Lets hear a little from ke huy more of a warm hug. Lets hear a little from ke huy quan, more of a warm hug. Lets hear a little from ke huy quan, a little from ke huy quan, a remarkable story in itself. His journey is extraordinary. Lets hear a little of what he said when he won. Myjourney started on a boat. I spent a year in a refugee camp, and somehow i ended up here on hollywoods biggest stage. Cheering they say stories like this only happen in the movies. I cannot believe its happening to me. This. This is the American Dream not a nota dry not a dry eye in the house. He has given a very moving interview saying he struggled to get parts for a long time, this has been a real struggle, finally a 51 year old winning an oscar, you can imagine scripts flying through to his agent there. Hope so, the scripts will require either a part for a man of asian ethnicity or not, to cast colour blind now, do we need the parts to be written for asian actors or can he play parts that actors can play . That is true diversity. Bud or can he play parts that actors can play . That is true diversity. And he is terrific in play . That is true diversity. And he is terrific in this play . That is true diversity. And he is terrific in this film, play . That is true diversity. And he is terrific in this film, he play . That is true diversity. And he is terrific in this film, he stands is terrific in this film, he stands out, it is sad and an indictment of where we are that we inevitably focus on the History Making Side of it because actually it is a cracking performance, is terrific. Sb, it because actually it is a cracking performance, is terrific. Sa family film, in performance, is terrific. Sa family film. In all performance, is terrific. Sa family film, in all the performance, is terrific. Sa family film, in all the multiverse performance, is terrific. Sa family film, in all the multiverse and i performance, is terrific. Sa familyj film, in all the multiverse and all film, in all the multi verse and all thatis film, in all the multi verse and all that is going on, it is about a family coming together and he is one of them, a man trying to do the best for her kids and it was a night were mums, dads, kids got thanked all the time. I dont know if there was an International Movement for mothers, he thanked his parents and Michelle Yeoh at the end thanked her mum, it was all about mums and Jamie Lee Curtis thanking her parents, tony curtis thanking her parents, tony curtis and janet lei who had had oscar nominations. And i think this film had that and that is why it has been so successful for all this that you see in craziness, it really is, they found a heart to get through this may be janet they found a heart to get through this may be janet leigh.

The Film Industry needs to do that, it has so much competition now from tv, are we going to get younger viewers into the cinema . With a film like this, if that can win oscars, not a stuffy old film, period drama, war film, it is modern, and that is a key shift in the industry acknowledging it needs to kind of up its game. Acknowledging it needs to kind of up its name. , acknowledging it needs to kind of up its name. ,. , its game. That is really interesting. Its game. That is really interesting. We its game.

We might talk a little more about this film in the coming minutes per lets take a look at some of the other awards, because that took three of the big acting awards, that leaves one, best actor. A curious category, a curious choice, tell me if im wrong, but what was that, a sort of nod to you have been away a long time, Brendan Fraser, welcome back reis fraser, welcome back reis brendan brazier, fraser, welcome back reis brendan brazier. You fraser, welcome back reis brendan brazier. You are fraser, welcome back reis brendan brazier, you are in fraser, welcome back reis brendan brazier, you are in charge fraser, welcome back reis brendan brazier, you are in charge of fraser, welcome back reis brendan brazier, you are in charge of the i brazier, you are in charge of the jungle, here have an oscar. Its a strange one, knowing that you could do a row like this or thought of him for roles like this, is a difficult role i would say, under layers of cgi, latex and prosthetics, a film called the whale, Brendan Fraser won four, i thought Austin Butler who played elvis and elvis would win this one, that thought maybe colin farrell, they were favourites, but Brendan Fraser has quietly gone about his business, won best actor at Venice Film Festival way back in september, and that immediately establishes you as a front runner, but i felt he had lost a bit of momentum over time, but slow and steady wins the race, or slow and heavy wins the race on this one. It is one of those more traditional oscar performances, in that he has gone through some sort of, you would say, disability physical transformation, and that is more classic, but in the old days Robert De Niro just put classic, but in the old days Robert De Nirojust put on classic, but in the old days Robert De Niro just put on the way, did not need the suit, so it has been a bit controversial, this film.
