The 98th Academy Awards<\/a> on Sunday saw \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d win big with six awards, including best picture, director, supporting actor and casting.<\/p>\n \u201cSinners\u201d followed with four awards, including best actor for leading man Michael B. Jordan.<\/p>\n Jessie Buckley took home best actress for “Hamnet.”<\/p>\n Comedian Conan O\u2019Brien returned<\/a> for a second year to host the ceremony, held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n The Latest at the Academy Awards:<\/p>\n After his big wins of the night, Paul Thomas Anderson<\/a> came to the press room to speak with reporters about his wins for best picture, director and adapted screenplay. He answered three questions \u2014 the maximum the Academy had been allowing for winners consistently throughout the night \u2014 but the last question zeroed in on criticism of \u201cOne Battle After Another.\u201d Some of the film\u2019s detractors have found fault with the portrayal of the Black women characters, particularly Teyana Taylor\u2019s Perfidia. Anderson said the character is \u201cflawed,\u201d and that he and the filmmakers wanted to capture the nuance of her life. \u201cIt\u2019s complicated,\u201d he said. \u201cWe always knew that we were trying to make something complicated.\u201d The point of Perfidia\u2019s arc is to set up the story of her daughter, Willa, played by Chase Infiniti. \u201cWhat happens when your parents, who are damaged, and handed quite a difficult history to you, how do you manage that? That\u2019s our story,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Best actress winner Jessie Buckley elaborated on her thoughts on the \u201ccrazy alchemy\u201d of winning the award on the U.K. and Ireland version of Mother\u2019s Day when speaking to reporters in the press room. She plays a grieving mother in the historical fiction drama \u201cHamnet.\u201d<\/p>\n In addition to being Oscars Sunday, the day also marked Buckley\u2019s first Mother\u2019s Day as a mom, and Buckley said her daughter, who is eight months old, got her first tooth this week. It\u2019s a big milestone, but perhaps not quite as big as her mom snagging her first Oscar.<\/p>\n \u201cIt feels like some kind of crazy alchemy that all these things are colliding,\u201d she said of the historic win backstage, plus the collision with Mother\u2019s Day in the U.K. and Ireland.<\/p>\n When best actor winner Michael B. Jordan<\/a> came backstage, he had to wait about a full minute for many in the crowd of reporters to stop cheering and sit down before he could answer any questions.<\/p>\n The \u201cSinners\u201d star who played twin brothers in the genre-bending vampire epic said his win feels \u201ctimely.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m here because of the people who came before me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve been extremely blessed in my life,\u201d he continued. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of people who\u2019ve seen me grow up in this industry, grow up in this town, and they looked out for me \u2014 and they didn\u2019t have to.\u201d<\/p>\n Backstage, Ryan Coogler was greeted with cheers and many a raised placard for questions by members of the press. He credited an English professor when he was 17 who read an assignment and suggested he go to Hollywood and write screenplays.<\/p>\n At the Governors Ball the happiest area was the Warner Bros. \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d tables where Leonardo DiCaprio, sipping red wine, and Benicio Del Toro, with champagne and not a few small beers, held court with studio executives, including producer Pam Abdy.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, Renate Reinsve ditched her shoes and walked barefoot through the party, which was carpeted. Mandy Patinkin sat alone sampling sushi and trying to make a phone call as the music blared. Kirsten Dunst stayed close to Alicia Silverstone, and Kerry Condon sampled the prime rib.<\/p>\n The best original screenplay Oscar winner for \u201cSinners\u201d was once a star wide receiver at Sacramento State, where he had 112 catches over his college career.<\/p>\n Coogler was also a two-time All-Academic selection in the Big Sky Conference.<\/p>\n He joins a rather exclusive club of sports figures who won Oscars, one that includes NBA greats Kobe Bryant, Stephen Curry, Shaquille O\u2019Neal, Kevin Durant and Mike Conley Jr.<\/p>\n Joachim Trier said he cited James Baldwin \u2014 \u201cAll adults are responsible for all children\u201d \u2014 because of revelations about crimes being done to children and the conflicts being waged in the world.<\/p>\n \u201cMe and most people around me have been at times crying a lot,\u201d Trier, a father, said, citing Palestinian, Ukrainian and Sudanese children suffering, in addition to other conflicts.<\/p>\n He said people need to \u201ccross the aisle\u201d to be more collaborative in protecting children.<\/p>\n Serena Williams put a clip of Michael B. Jordan\u2019s best actor speech onto social media and needed two words to sum up her feelings.<\/p>\n \u201cSo happy,\u201d the tennis legend wrote in reaction to the \u201cSinners\u201d star getting the Oscar.<\/p>\n The winners for \u201cGolden\u201d in \u201cKPop Demon Hunters\u201d thanked additional colleagues and family members after they were cut off during their acceptance speech.<\/p>\n Singer songwriter EJAE said she wanted to shoutout her fellow performers Rei Ami and Audrey Nuna, who voiced the singing parts along her in the film.<\/p>\n The cast also delivered thanks to their fans watching in Korea.<\/p>\n \u201cI was very nervous but it was such an honor to be performing, it\u2019s such an incredible stage,\u201d EJAE said. \u201cIt was not on my bucket list because I did not think it was possible.\u201d<\/p>\n The Korean American said it was an \u201cincredible experience\u201d to honor their ancestors by beginning their performance with Korean traditional music.<\/p>\n First stop for Oscar winners and invited guests after the show ends is the Governors Ball. They\u2019ll ride escalators up to the Ray Dolby Ballroom atop the shopping and entertainment complex where the ceremony is held.<\/p>\n The show typically runs three hours or more, creating a powerful need for immediate food and drink after sitting that long.<\/p>\n Celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck is in his 32nd year catering the party. He\u2019s supported by 75 savory chefs and 45 pastry chefs.<\/p>\n Winners can sip on signature cocktails like \u201cThe Sequel\u201d with tequila and \u201cAfter Glow\u201d without booze while waiting for their names to be engraved on their golden statues.<\/p>\n This isn\u2019t a sit-down dinner. It\u2019s the first chance for Oscar-goers to let their hair down on the night\u2019s party circuit, gossip about the show over the din of a live band and move on to the next bash. Over 300 servers swarm the crowd with food on trays and small plates. More elaborate grazing stations feature cheese and charcuterie, wood-fired pizzas, Japanese izakaya, and hand-carved wagyu and steak frites.<\/p>\n A slider bar serves ribeye burgers, Thai sausage dogs, pastrami and fried cod to go with tempura onion rings. A handroll and sushi bar includes spicy ahi tuna, sea bream and salmon. Need to soothe your incurable sweet tooth? Hit the tables featuring patisserie, madeleine and tiramisu, chocolate decadence, and gelato.<\/p>\n Vegans will feel at home since the party has offered over 50% plant-based and vegetarian dishes since 2013.<\/p>\n Everyone leaves feeling like a winner after picking up one of the 2,000 mini chocolate Oscars airbrushed with 24-karat edible gold dust.<\/p>\n The runtime of the show clocked in at 3 hours and 40 minutes, which is pretty typical for the show and somewhat modest considering 24 awards were handed out Sunday evening. The longest ceremony lasted over four hours in 2002.<\/p>\n A bizarre, pre-taped epilogue to the Oscars showed O\u2019Brien being named the Oscars\u2019 \u201cHost for Life\u201d after his performance tonight.<\/p>\n That\u2019s before he\u2019s locked into an office where a green gas fills the room. An unconscious O\u2019Brien is carried out to show his name plaque replaced by… Mr. Beast?<\/p>\n The film was the big winner at this year\u2019s Oscars, leading the way with six wins.<\/p>\n It becomes the 42nd film in Oscars history with at least six statuettes.<\/p>\n \u201cSinners\u201d won four this year and \u201cFrankenstein\u201d won three.<\/p>\n Four people in Jessie Buckley\u2019s Irish family stood up and waved toward the stage from the mezzanine, far out of sight of the stage.<\/p>\n \u201cMy family, my Irish family, they\u2019re all here, Ireland bought them flights,\u201d Buckley said. \u201cMom, dad, thank you for teaching me to dream and to never be defined by expectation but to carve your own passion.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe all come from a lineage of women who continue to create against all odds. Thank you for recognizing me in this role,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Autumn Durald Arkapaw<\/a>, the first woman and Black person to win the cinematography award told reporters in the press room that she was worried about using her time wisely for her acceptance speech. \u201cAre they going to kick me off?\u201d she recalled wondering. Still, she managed to give a grounded, moving speech, and one she hopes will inspire future filmmakers.<\/p>\n \u201cA lot of little girls who look like me will sleep really well tonight because they\u2019ll want to become cinematographers,\u201d she said. \u201cI know that.\u201d<\/p>\n She decided to ask all the women in the Dolby Theatre to stand up during her speech because \u201cmoments like this don\u2019t happen without women kind of standing up for you and advocating for you,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n The win \u201cisn\u2019t about me anymore,\u201d she continued. \u201cIt\u2019s about so much more and I wanted it for all of the ladies in the room, and I wanted it for all the girls at home.\u201d<\/p>\n The loudest and rowdiest applause of the evening likely came from inside the press room when Michael B. Jordan was announced as the winner of the best actor prize. Reporters in the room burst into raucous cheers before presenter Adrien Brody could even finish reading out the \u201cSinners\u201d star\u2019s name.<\/p>\n Michael B. Jordan\u2019s dad stood up and pumped his fist toward the stage. The actor said his father flew in from Ghana for the Oscars.<\/p>\n He was one of the many, many people who gave the \u201cSinners\u201d star a rousing, standing ovation for his first Oscar win.<\/p>\n \u201cI stand here because of the people that came before me,\u201d he said, adding thanks for the support he\u2019s received throughout his life.<\/p>\n \u201cI feel it, I know you guys want to me to do well, and I want to do that because you guys bet on me.\u201d<\/p>\n Anderson dedicated his win to Adam Somner.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s in a really big bar up in the sky right now,\u201d Anderson said of his late collaborator. \u201cHe\u2019s having a gin and tonic, and he is so happy.\u201d<\/p>\n Anderson said of the trophy for best director: \u201cThere will always be some doubt in your heart that you deserve it. But there is no question the pleasure of having it for myself.\u201d<\/p>\n The vocalists behind the song, EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami, performed it live for the Oscars audience earlier in the night.<\/p>\n As the group of winners accepted the award, the music started up. EJAE, who spoke first, put her hand up and said, \u201cPlease stop.\u201d The music kept going as her fellow winners tried to speak and then the lights dimmed as they cut to commercial.<\/p>\n Inside, two people continued to try to speak, the audience seemed a little upset and the mic was completely cut off. The play-off music was loud and definitive.<\/p>\n \u201cThis film is about a very dysfunctional family and it\u2019s the opposite of what I felt with this beautiful group behind me,\u201d the filmmaker behind the feature, Joachim Trier, said.<\/p>\n He also quoted James Baldwin: \u201cAll adults are responsible for all children,\u201d adding that people should not vote for politicians who don\u2019t take this into account.<\/p>\n Per Academy rules, a country may only submit one film for consideration in the international feature film category.<\/p>\n In Iran, a government-backed committee controlled film submissions, and was unlikely to consider dissident films like \u201cIt Was Just an Accident\u201d<\/a> by filmmaker Jafar Panahi<\/a>.<\/p>\n So France submitted the film instead. Panahi lives in France for part of the year, the cofinancing company was French, some of the producers were French, the editing was done in Paris and the film played in France.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Voice of Hind Rajab,\u201d<\/a> about the story of a 6-year-old<\/a> killed in Gaza, is Tunisia\u2019s entry. The director Kaouther Ben Hania is Tunisian, and Palestine submitted a different film.<\/p>\n Audience members waved golden light sticks in the air, a common sight at Korean pop concerts, as \u201cKpop Demon Hunters\u201d singers EJAE, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami took the stage to sing \u201cGolden.\u201d<\/p>\n Arkapaw becomes the first woman and Black person to win the award<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI really want all the women in this room to stand up, because I feel like I don\u2019t get here without you guys.\u201d<\/p>\n The crowd began applauding as the women in the audience got on their feet.<\/p>\n \u201cI would like to dedicate this to my aunt, Barbara Hall, who was film archivist for the Academy for over 25 years, showing me old movies and teaching me about film history,\u201d Jurgensen said.<\/p>\n The prize recognized the work of Gareth John, Al Nelson, Gwendolyn Yates Whittle, Gary A. Rizzo and Juan Peralta in the movie.<\/p>\n Blues changed the life of G\u00f6ransson\u2019s family.<\/p>\n \u201cMy dad bought his first blues album in Sweden, 1964,\u201d G\u00f6ransson said.<\/p>\n \u201cEven though it was on the other side of the world from a place my dad had never been, and a place he could not relate to, the music was so powerful it changed my dad\u2019s life.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201c’Mr Nobody Against Putin’ is about how you lose your country. And what we saw when working with this footage is that you lose it through countless small, little acts of complicity,\u201d filmmaker David Borenstein said.<\/p>\n \u201cWe all face a moral choice, but luckily, even a nobody is more powerful than you think,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n In this short directed by Joshua Seftel and produced by Conall Jones, journalist Steve Hartman and photographer Lou Bopp document the empty bedrooms of children killed in school shootings over the course of seven years.<\/p>\n Gloria Cazares, whose child was killed in the Uvalde school shooting, accepted the award.<\/p>\n \u201cMy daughter, Jackie, was nine years old when she was killed in Uvalde. Since that day, her bedroom has been frozen in time,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Jimmy Kimmel\u2019s return to the Oscars stage (\u201cWait, am I not hosting?\u201d) and ABC telecast where he served as host four times still can\u2019t possibly be as dramatic as the year he just had.<\/p>\n ABC and parent company Disney yanked his late-night show \u201cJimmy Kimmel Live!\u201d<\/a> off the air in September for remarks he made following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n Kimmel\u2019s indefinite suspension was celebrated by President Donald Trump<\/a>. But it wouldn\u2019t even be a week before he returned to the air<\/a> with much stronger ratings than before.<\/p>\n His jokes at Trump\u2019s expense prompted the president to post that ABC needed to \u201cget the bum off the air.\u201d<\/p>\n But Kimmel instead got a contract extension<\/a> in December.<\/p>\n The award recognizes the work of Joe Letteri, Richard Baneham, Eric Saindon and Daniel Barrett.<\/p>\n Tamara Deverell and Shane Vieau won best production design for the film.<\/p>\n Barbra Streisand\u2019s tribute to Robert Redford highlighted the late actor-director\u2019s history of defending press freedoms, protecting the environment and encouraging new voices in film.<\/p>\n \u201cBob had real backbone on and off the screen,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Babs, as Redford used to call her, sang \u201cThe Way We Were\u201d at the end of her tribute.<\/p>\n \u201cI miss him now more than ever, even though he loved teasing me,\u201d she said, explaining how she got the nickname.<\/p>\n \u201cBelieve me when I say there is an actress of my generation who was not inspired by and enthralled with her absolute singularity,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n McAdams told the audience a Girl Scout song Keaton used to sing set on film sets:<\/p>\n “Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, the other is gold. A circle is round, it has no end. That\u2019s how long, I will be your friend.”<\/p>\n Billy Crystal opened the in memoriam segment honoring his best friend, Rob Reiner.<\/p>\n He ticked off a list of Reiner\u2019s films, including \u201cWhen Harry Met Sally,\u201d starring Crystal and Meg Ryan, \u201cStand By Me,\u201d \u201cSay Anything\u201d and \u201cThis is Spinal Tap,\u201d among many others.<\/p>\n A photo of Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, appeared behind Crystal.<\/p>\n The Reiners were found dead in their Los Angeles home in December. Their son, Nick Reiner, has been charged in the deaths of his parents and has pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n Having a slew of actors with longstanding ties to Reiner \u2014 Meg Ryan, Kiefer Sutherland, Fred Savage, Demi Moore, John Cusack, Ione Skye and many others \u2014 come on stage for the tribute was reminiscent of how the Academy did the same for director John Hughes at the Oscars 16 years ago.<\/p>\n This item has been updated to correct the spelling of Michele Singer Reiner’s first name. It is spelled Michele, not Michelle.<\/p>\n For his first original film, not adapted from any source material, Coogler won the original screenplay Oscar \u2014 his very first. He\u2019s also up for more awards tonight.<\/p>\n Before accepting his award for original screenplay, Coogler embraced his wife, Zinzi Coogler, who is a producer and worked with him on \u201cSinners.\u201d He then went down the line with his cast, hugging Jack O\u2019Connell, Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo and, lastly, his frequent collaborator and friend, Michael B. Jordan.<\/p>\n During his speech, he asked the \u201cSinners\u201d cast and crew to stand up. \u201cYou\u2019re all winners in my book,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n In adapting Thomas Pynchon\u2019s 1990 novel about a subculture of aging rebels, \u201cVineland,\u201d Anderson reworked everything from the timeline to the characters\u2019 names to more details than can be listed in brief.<\/p>\n But he does capture the humor, the cynicism and the sweep of Pynchon, the sense of a ragged community of outsiders caught up by forces far beyond even its own paranoid assumptions.<\/p>\n \u201cI wrote this movie for my kids to say sorry for the housekeeping mess that we left in this world we\u2019re handing off to them,\u201d Anderson said.<\/p>\n He won as supporting actor for \u201cOne Battle After Another.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSean Penn couldn\u2019t be here this evening,\u201d presenter Kieran Culkin said. \u201cOr didn\u2019t want to, so I\u2019ll be accepting the award on his behalf.\u201d<\/p>\n Penn did little campaigning this awards season, and also stayed away from the Actor Awards and BAFTA Awards, where he won trophies.<\/p>\n It\u2019s not the first time Penn has no-showed at the Oscars.<\/p>\n The 65-year-old actor has never appeared too attached to Hollywood hardware, whether he wins or loses. He previously gave one of his Oscars to Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskyy.<\/p>\n The live action short category resulted in a tie (\u201cTwo People Exchanging Saliva\u201d and \u201cThe Singers\u201d each got statuettes) this year. But this is not the first time this has happened at the Oscars.<\/p>\n The most recent tie came during the 2013 Oscars honoring films from 2012, when \u201cZero Dark Thirty\u201d and \u201cSkyfall\u201d tied for the sound editing category. There have been five other ties in Oscars history, making Sunday\u2019s tie the seventh.<\/p>\n The first tie, which was at the 5th Academy Awards almost 100 years ago, was based on an old rule. Wallace Beery (\u201cThe Champ\u201d) and Fredric March (\u201cDr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde\u201d) tied for best actor. They came within exactly one vote of each other, and in accordance with Academy rules at the time, they shared the recognition. That rule has since changed and only an exact match in totals would qualify as a tie today, according to the Academy.<\/p>\n \u201cThank you to the Academy for supporting a movie that is weird, that is queer, and made by a majority of women!\u201d said Natalie Musteata of \u201cTwo People Exchanging Saliva.\u201d<\/p>\n Director Sam A. Davis of \u201cSingers\u201d called his short a \u201csimple story about the power of music and art to bring us together in a moment when we live in an increasingly isolated world.\u201d<\/p>\n Kulukundis thanked the academy for making this award happen: \u201cI dedicate this to you and to the casting directors who never got a chance to get up here, who didn\u2019t even get a chance to get their name on the movie.\u201d<\/p>\n Kulukundis has served as the casting director on past Oscar favorites including \u201cThe Brutalist\u201d and \u201cThere Will Be Blood.\u201d<\/p>\n She has worked on all 10 of \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d director Paul Thomas Anderson\u2019s<\/a> feature films, beginning as an intern<\/a> on his debut film \u201cHard Eight\u201d in 1996.<\/p>\n Host Conan O\u2019Brien aimed his comedic barbs towards screenagers and the generally phone-obsessed in a short pre-taped segment about a (surely fictional) film lab that reimagines classic films to be optimal for smart phone viewing.<\/p>\n So-called \u201cadvanced\u201d technology isolates the most visually interesting part of the shot for the vertical-only version, but that is often not the most interesting or dynamic part of the shot. An example was the infamous orgasm scene from the late Rob Reiner\u2019s \u201cWhen Harry Met Sally,\u201d where the vertical-only shot does not show an animated Meg Ryan, but rather a woman in the background who is taking a sip from a glass.<\/p>\n Only five awards into the night, \u201cFrankenstein\u201d is a two-time winner already after taking home the Oscar for costume design, as well as hair and makeup.<\/p>\n \u201cWhile we\u2019re making this film, we had the sense we\u2019re part of something very special, and tonight confirms that,\u201d makeup artist Mike Hill said. Jordan Samuel and Cliona Furey were the other artists on the award-winning team.<\/p>\n \u201cOn behalf of myself and the amazing team that I work with, the artisans, the alchemists, dream weavers, we\u2019re so grateful to the Academy for recognizing our craft,\u201d said Kate Hawley, the film\u2019s costume designer.<\/p>\n Miles Caton and Raphael Saadiq are performing \u201cI Lied to You,\u201d the nominated original song from \u201cSinners.\u201d They\u2019re joined by a bevy of performers onstage \u2014 Misty Copeland,<\/a> Eric Gales, Buddy Guy, Brittany Howard, Christone \u201cKingfish\u201d Ingram, Jayme Lawson, Li Jun Li, Bobby Rush, Shaboozey<\/a> and Alice Smith among them \u2014 for a near-recreation of the scene in \u201cSinners\u201d where the song is introduced.<\/p>\n It is one of the more memorable moments in the film, where a blues song in a Mississippi juke joint opens up to showcase hip-hop DJs, rock \u2018n\u2019 roll guitarists, ballerinas and more, illustrating the Black music genre\u2019s place at the foundation of American popular culture.<\/p>\n When the live tribute performance to \u201cSinners\u201d wrapped on stage, there was a slew of applause, some of which came from people who stood for the ovation.<\/p>\n The highest praise may have come from Michael B. Jordan himself, who nodded and smiled.<\/p>\n The message was clear: The star approved, big time.<\/p>\n The Canadian film is about a poor boy who falls in love with a girl who cries those gemstones, and he decides to pawn them for money. Directed by Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski, the boy ends up making a choice between pearls and love. It takes place in Montreal.<\/p>\n \u201cTo Canada,\u201d Lavis and Szczerbowski said while accepting their award.<\/p>\n Three years ago, Arden Cho was ready to walk away from acting. She\u2019d landed her first lead role in the Netflix series \u201cPartner Track,\u201d<\/a> only to see it canceled after one season. She was heartbroken.<\/p>\n Her agent wouldn\u2019t let her go. \u201cShe refused to say, \u2018You\u2019re done.\u2019 She just kept sending me things,\u201d Cho said. \u201cShe just keep being like, \u2018Look, I know you\u2019re not auditioning. I know you\u2019re done, but I think you\u2019d like this.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n Now, Cho is juggling multiple projects after voicing the lead character Rumi in Netflix\u2019s animated summertime sensation \u201cKPop Demon Hunters,\u201d which has become the all-time most-streamed movie on the platform<\/a> \u2014 and spawned inescapable earworms \u201cGolden\u201d and \u201cSoda Pop\u201d as its soundtrack dominated pop charts.<\/p>\n And now it\u2019s an Oscar winner.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is for Korea and Koreans everywhere,\u201d said \u201cKPop Demon Hunters\u201d co-director Maggie Kang.<\/p>\n Madigan, following a deep cackle, said she thought of her speech in the shower the day before.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re kind of advised, \u2019Don\u2019t say all these names, as nobody knows who the hell these people are,\u2019\u201d she said. \u201cBut you\u2019re not rattling them off. They mean something to you; that you couldn\u2019t be here without them.\u201d<\/p>\n AP Film Writers Jake Coyle and Lindsey Bahr both picked Teyana Taylor (\u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d) to win best supporting actress. So did 40% of readers on apnews.com<\/a>, with Amy Madigan (\u201cWeapons\u201d) their second pick.<\/p>\n Madigan won \u2014 and Taylor seemed to be the first to leap from her seat in celebration when she was announced.<\/p>\nAnderson talks the racial politics of \u2018One Battle After Another\u2019<\/h2>\n
