The film -- featuring hotdog fingers, googly-eyed rocks and 'Raccaccoonie' -- started Sunday night off with back-to-back statues for Ke Huy Quan and Jamie Lee Curtis.
It's the favorite to win best picture, best director, best actress for Michelle Yeoh and best supporting actor for Ke Huy Quan.At the Oscar Luncheon, Ke Huy Quan snuck up behind the directors of the film, "Everything, Everywhere, All At Once," during their On The Red Carpet interview for a surprise hug and heartfelt message!They dreamt up universes of hotdog fingers, googly-eyed rocks and "Raccaccoonie.
Yet "Everything Everywhere All at Once" has emerged as the most improbable heavyweights of The Oscars, which is already underway live on ABC. An absurdist indie that pairs existentialism and everything bagels, released way back in March last year, is not just heading for a few possible wins at the Oscars. It's poised to steamroll.
The unexpected success -- the A24 release has grossed more than $100 million worldwide against a $14.3 million budget -- has thrown off the trajectory the Daniels imagined they might be on. In a recent, rare lull between awards ceremonies, they spoke by Zoom from Kwan's home office. He apologized for the mess, a disorder that reminded him of their film.
When "Everything Everywhere All at Once" landed in theaters, it ignited the specialty film business after two years of pandemic, driving moviegoers back to art houses and becoming A24's biggest box-office smash. But even then, awards talk was mostly farfetched. It wasn't until the fall, when it won best film at the Gotham Awards that the buzz started to get real. Affection for the film just kept building.
