In at least one universe, “Everything Everywhere All at Once” is a Best Picture winner! The lauded absurdist film took home the top honor at the 95th Academy Awards on Sunday, following wins earlier in the night for Jamie Lee Curtis‘s Best Supporting Actress, Ke Huy Quan‘s Best Supporting Actor, Michelle Yeoh‘s Best Actress, Best Original Screenplay, the Daniels’ Best Director and Best Editing. “There is no movie without our brilliant and big-hearted cast and crew,” producer Jonathan Wang said. “I never thought I would get to say this, so I say this with one voice: Thank you to the Academy.” Wang went on to dedicate the win to his wife, quoting one of his film’s most famous lines, “In another life, I would have really liked doing laundry and taxes with you.” The Daniels gave similarly moving speeches when accepting Best Director. “Our fellow nominees, our nominees in this category, you guys are our heroes,” Daniel Scheinert said. “This is weird, we want to dedicate this to the mommies, all the mommies of the world, to our moms.” Daniel Kwan thanked the film’s creative team, too. “I know every director agrees with me when I say a director is nothing without their incredible cast and crew.

This is my family, my friends. If our movie has greatness and genius, it’s only because they have greatness and genius flowing through their hearts and souls and minds and gave that precious gift for our film.” “Everything Everywhere” previously won top honours at the Critics Choice Awards, Independent Spirit Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards, Directors Guild Awards, and Writers Guild Awards among others.
