Dear Theo:
One more win everywhere. “Everything at once everywhere” confirms that she is the rival to beat at the 2023 Oscars, taking the triple union crown. The Producers (PGA) and the Directors (DGA) fell on their side and now the same has happened in the Actors Guild (SAG) who have faced a 29th transition edition (broadcast by the Netflix YouTube channel) as step prior to its jump to the platform next year, leaving behind its time of transmission on traditional television. Only “Apollo 13” lost the Oscar after having won in the three most important events of the Guilds, so it is already illusory to bet against the Daniels’ film even though the Academy has shown to break statistics without any rush in recent years.
“Everything at the same time everywhere” makes a roll before a profession that turns to the film and also becomes the most awarded of these awards with 4 awards in the categories of casting, actress (Michelle Yeoh), actor of cast (Ke Huy Quan) and supporting actress (Jamie Lee Curtis). Brendan Fraser wins the Best Actor Award for “The Whale.”
“Everything at once everywhere” has managed to mark its times very well to be present at all times but never with an overwhelming condition but rather empathetic and connecting through word of mouth. An inertia that led to films like “Parasites” or “CODA: Los sonidos del silencio” that showed in the SAG that the largest group in the industry, that of the actors, was surrendered to these bets that, without The need to be incontestable, they do establish an emotional connection and a viral (but not abrasive) face-to-face that makes them popular but short-lived phenomena, being precisely in the conversation at the decisive moment.
A success that showed that it has many faces beyond the Daniels. It was the night for Michelle Yeoh (who won the award for best actress visibly moved) and Jamie Lee Curtis who found her night of recognition in an industry that respects and loves her after so many years contributing to it both in more personal projects such as mythical and popular sagas such as “Halloween”.

The oversized Ke Huy Quan was somewhat more eclipsed since not only Michelle Yeoh and Jamie Lee Curtis made the spotlights focus on them after many decades of silence in which they have had to overcome prejudices and the erratic whims of the industry, but also that in the delivery of the award for best cast, the spotlight was placed on the veteran James Hong, remembered for “Coup in little China” (1976), at 94 years old, vindicating an Asian community to which it now seems that Hollywood is lending the attention it deserves when telling its stories.
“Everything at once everywhere” was the face of a ceremony that left any other option as a mere stone guest. The cross was “Almas en torment de Inisherin” which became the biggest loser of these awards by not materializing any of the 5 nominations with which it was presented. Neither the bitter and humanist charm that the film gives off, nor the chemistry that Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson also showed on stage when presenting the clip of it, was enough for a film that aspired to more and that, as has been been deflating in the decisive line.
The same can be said of “The Fabelmans” which has suffered from the lack of passion of Spielberg’s most personal project, which was evidenced by the coldness in the film’s presentation clip. That is why there was no trace of Brad Pitt or Margot Robbie, leaving almost the substitutes to present the “Babylon” clip. Also unnoticed are the actresses of “Ellas hablando” who would have deserved more on an individual level beyond their joint nomination in cast.
After his commented number at the Bafta (a rap that raised more than one meme on networks), he stood out among the pairs of presenters such as Ariana DeBose urged his partner Diego Luna to be in charge of presenting the supporting actress nominees while Zendaya and Paul Mescal were in charge of presenting the first prize of a night full of surprises.
Sally Field has been the recipient of the honorary award given by Andrew Garfield (the aunt and nephew reunion in the “The Amazing Spider-Man” movies). A tribute to one of those essential actresses who, despite never having been a star, has been one of the most grateful presences whenever she has been on the screen, both in film and on television.
