Oscar Moments: Moms get special 賞賛する on feel-good night
LOS ANGELES (AP) - It was 大混乱／混沌とした, messy, wild, creative, big-hearted and utterly unique. If it were a bagel, it would most certainly have been the "everything" 肉親，親類d.
But "Everything Everywhere All At Once" was a movie, not a bagel, and it 支配するd Sunday's Oscar 儀式, making for one feel-good moment after another - and making history, too, on a 抱擁する night for Asians and Asian Americans in Hollywood.
And as for The 非難する? 井戸／弁護士席, this Oscar night felt more like a big 抱擁する, its heartwarming speeches a potent antidote to the uneasy memory of last year´s Will Smith saga. They kept coming: There was Ke Huy Quan, bounding up the stairs to 受託する the supporting actor トロフィー, his teary joy 感染性の as he referred to his remarkable life story. From the same film there was Jamie 物陰／風下 Curtis, speaking eloquently about 事実上の／代理 as a collaborat ive 努力する, and the directing 二人組 the Daniels, thanking public school teachers and the family members who 養育するd their creativity.
Then there was 主要な lady Michelle Yeoh, putting an 延滞の cherry on 最高の，を越す of her amazing career as she became the first Asian best actress 勝利者. She spoke of many things, but perhaps most eloquently about mothers, whom she called "superheroes." And on this Oscar night in particular, many 勝利者s joined her in thanking their mothers poignantly, 非，不，無 more so than 衣装 designer Ruth E. Carter, who saluted her 101-year-old mother, who she said had just died.
Also thanked, of course, were were children, fathers, husbands and wives. "I am your son, and I love you," Guillermo del Toro, winning for best animated film, said to his late parents. And perhaps the four most heart-rending words of the night （機の）カム from a wife to a husband: "Stay strong, my love," said Yulia Navalnaya to her 拘留するd husband, Alexei Navalny, the ロシアの 対立 leader.

SO, ABOUT LAST YEAR ...
Serving once again as host, Jimmy Kimmel was 明確に going to have to bring up The 非難する, as it shall forever be known. It took about seven minutes into his monologue before he did - a sarcastic 割れ目 about the bizarrely passive reaction last year to the moment Will Smith slapped Chris 激しく揺する over a joke directed at his wife. "We have strict 政策s in place," Kimmel said. "If anyone in this theater commits an 行為／法令／行動する of 暴力／激しさ at any point in this show, you will be awarded the Oscar for best actor and permitted to give a 19-minute long speech." Later, he made a 言及／関連 to Smith´s 業績／成果 as Hitch, and at another point 言及／関連d one of his songs - all without について言及するing his 指名する.
QUAN GETS TEARS FLOWING EARLY, AND OFTEN
Emotions were running high from the second award, as the ebullient Quan won his supporting actor トロフィー - an 結果 that was 推定する／予想するd but no いっそう少なく exciting in the moment. In fact, presenter Ariana DeBose could barely utter his 指名する - she was already crying.
"My 旅行 started on a boat. I spent a year in a 難民 （軍の）野営地，陣営," said Quan, 51, who is of Vietnamese 降下／家系. "Somehow, I ended up here on Hollywood´s biggest 行う／開催する／段階. They say stories like this only happen in the movies. I cannot believe it´s happening to me. This - THIS - is the American dream." He also thanked - of course - his mother, age 84, watching at home.
CURTIS: "I AM HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE"
Winning すぐに after Quan, Curtis stepped onstage and made yet another terrific awards-season speech about 共同製作 in the 産業. "I know it looks like I am standing up here myself, but I am not," she said. "I am hundreds of people."
She spoke to all the fans and 同僚s who "supported the genre movies I have made all these years, the hundreds and thousands of people: We. Just. Won. An. Oscar. Together!" And Curtis, too, shouted out to her famous late parents, Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh, whom she 公式文書，認めるd had been 指名するd in different 部類s. "I just won an Oscar!" she told them.
STAY STRONG, MY LOVE
Navalny sits in 独房監禁 confinement in Russia. So it was left to his wife, Yulia Navalnaya, to speak for him - and to him, 同様に - when the 文書の "Navalny" won an Oscar. "My husband is in 刑務所，拘置所 just for telling the truth. My husband is in 刑務所，拘置所 just for defending 僕主主義," Navalnaya said. "Alexei, I am dreaming of the day when you will be 解放する／自由な and our country will be 解放する／自由な. Stay strong, my love."
Director Daniel Roher 献身的な his Oscar to Navalny and all political 囚人s around the world. "Alexei, the world has not forgotten your 決定的な message to us all: We must not be afraid to …に反対する 独裁者s and 権威主義 wherever it 後部s its 長，率いる."
GAGA GOES MINIMAL
No one knows how to step into the glamour better than Lady Gaga, and she appeared on the Oscar red (井戸／弁護士席, シャンペン酒-colored) carpet in 劇の 構成 and a fabulous Versace gown from the designer´s 最近の collection. But when she appeared onstage - in a surprise 外見 - to sing a powerful rendition of "持つ／拘留する My 手渡す" from "最高の，を越す Gun: 無所属の政治家," the glamorous outfit was gone, 取って代わるd by a T-shirt and ripped ジーンズs and a 構成-解放する／自由な 直面する. It was yet another 説得力のある Oscar 業績／成果 for Gaga, who never fails to innovate and surprise.
CARTER MAKES HISTORY, AGAIN
Four years ago, Carter took her first historic statuette, becoming the first 黒人／ボイコット woman to 勝利，勝つ for 衣装 design for "黒人／ボイコット Panther." On Sunday she again made history when she won the award for "黒人／ボイコット Panther: Wakanda Forever," becoming the first 黒人／ボイコット woman to 勝利，勝つ two Oscars. She 献身的な the award to Mabel Carter, her mother, who she said died this past week at age 101. "This film 用意が出来ている me for this moment," she said. "Chadwick, please take care of Mom" - referring to Chadwick Boseman, the beloved late 星／主役にする of the 初めの film.
THE DANIELS THANK THE TEACHERS - AND THE MOMMIES!
The Daniels - Scheinert and Kwan - had a number of 適切な時期s to 上がる the 行う／開催する／段階, collecting awards for best 初めの screenplay and best director on the way to a best picture 勝利，勝つ for "Everything Everywhere." The first time, Scheinert quipped he was going to 指名する all the teachers who put him and his brother in 拘留，拘置 - then instead thanked the teachers, by 指名する, who "educated me and 奮起させるd me and taught me to be いっそう少なく of a butthead."
Kwan thanked "my Mom who 保護するd me as a child, 保護するd my inner 物語を話す人／作家." Winning best director, they （機の）カム 支援する to thank, in Scheinert´s words, "the mommies of the world .... 特に my mom and dad, thank you for not squashing my creativity when I was making really 乱すing horror films or really perverted comedy films or dressing in drag as a kid, which is a 脅し to nobody!" The audience 元気づけるd.
YEOH IS TAKING IT HOME TO MALAYSIA - AND MOM!
In "Everything Everywhere," one of Yeoh´s most memorable scenes is a 仲直り of sorts with her young adult daughter (Stephanie Hsu ), a scene that speaks to the very essence of parenthood, in all its 裁判，公判s and rewards.
So it was fitting that Yeoh, 受託するing her best actress award, would 焦点（を合わせる） on motherhood 同様に. "I have to dedicate this to my mom, all the moms in the world because they are really the superheroes," she said, "and without them 非，不，無 of us would be here トン ight." She 追加するd that her mom was watching in Malaysia with her family. "She´s 84, and I´m taking this home to her." Yeoh, 60, also earned 元気づけるs for her plug for women as they age in Hollywood, telling them: "Don't let anybody tell you you're past your prime!"
