Nonetheless, the set design was phenomenal and there were several warm and funny moments. It was a little more low-key than previous years and Kimmel set the tone from the start, opening with a funny speech which also paid recognition to the last six months of #MeToo ruckus in the industry.

Funny highlights included Jenifer Lawrence clambering over a row of seats with a wine glass and Helen Mirren riding on stage with a jet ski. Heartwarming moments included Jordan Peele’s inspiring acceptance speech and Frances McDormand’s powerful speech about inclusion.

The shape of Water won four took the lead winning four awards. Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri also performed well and Get Out won best original screenplay. The best-animated feature went to Coco, which also won an award for Best original song.

All in all, the Oscars this year was optimistic and entertaining, although we must admit that it is always a little disappointing when the Oscars run so smoothly.

Without giving anything away, one of the movies greatest strengths is its sheer unpredictability. The plot is constantly shifting and we see some real character development as the characters adapt to deal with their grief.

Despite what we might assume from the trailer, the movie is not an outright attack on the police force and justice system, though it does consider these things. More than this, it is a journey through the complexity of human emotion and perseverance.

The entire cast gave outstanding performances but special credit is owed to Frances McDormand, who we expect will be in the running for Lead Actress at the Oscars.

Overall, the movie is tragic, touching and often dubious. Like Mildred Hayes, we must lean on humor to guide us through the uncertainty that is cleverly intertwined with the plot. A must-see!

4.5/5
