Subtitle this: “Parasite” is the first non-English language film to win best picture in the 92-year history of the Academy Awards
LOS ANGELES — .
After the Dolby Theatre had emptied out, the “Parasite” team still remained on the stage, soaking in their win. “They told me I have 45 seconds to speak, which is 45 seconds more than the Senate gave John Bolton this week,” Pitt said, alluding to the impeachment hearings. “I'm thinking maybe Quentin does a movie about it.”
“I've been a scoundrel in my life. I've been selfish, I've been cruel at times and hard to work with. But so many of you in this room have given me a second chance,” Phoenix said. When people guide each other toward redemption, he said, “that is the best of humanity.” The hostless ceremony opened on a note of inclusion, with Janelle Monae performing “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood” and her own song, “Come Alive,” with an assist from Billy Porter. “I’m so proud to be standing here as a black queer artist telling stories," Monae said."Happy Black History Month.”
