Nobody knows why the academy award statue is called an Oscar: even a former Academy director couldn't figure out which anecdote behind the golden statuette's nickname for sure. The most famously accepted story is about the hindquarters of the knight - standing on a film reel with five spokes resembling the derriere of an uncle named Oscar.

Such stories, like dreams, are brought to life via movies. So let’s look at this year’s Oscar winners, and let me tell you that I have not watched a single nominated movie this year, because we have completely cut down our screen times. Adwitya deserves to live in the real world as much as possible before the inevitable screens that surround us occupy her brain throughout waking life. On that note, the free-form movies that play in our minds while we sleep are serious contenders for oscars. Blockbuster action, heart wrenching drama, gut busting laugh-out-loud comedy, mysterious whodunit, poignant slice-of-life, mind bending or mind boggling or mind blowing soft science fiction, swashbuckling adventure, edge of your seat psychological thriller, red herring mystery, horrific nightmares and all other film genres.
I myself act all the time, because if I reveal my true nature like Edward Hyde, my Henry Jekyll persona will be drawn and quartered. Just kidding, I'm a proper sushil, shaant, sanatani guy. Reminds me of Sushant, may he rest in peace. Onwards about the 2026 Oscars, in which Sinners were winners. Hedonistic lifestyles suit fortunately famous faces. I am just saying that; I have no proof but these days, I can say whatever we want and leave it up to you to fact-check.
One battle after another got a lot of awards, and DiCaprio has intrigued me ever since I saw What's Eating Gilbert Grape when I was a child, and he was a child as well. Johnny Depp hadn't yet started swigging rum on pirate boats, swaggering and staggering through Disney adventure theme parks. Sean Penn and Benicio del Toro seem opposite ends of the acting spectrum. The former is regularly stoic and morose, the latter, fun and eclectic in acting choices.
Just watch Snatch or The Phoenician Scheme or any of his movies or 21 grams and other hard hitting deep movies.
Case in point, watch my views about Wes Anderson movies! I prefer arthouse and offbeat independent movies over stupid blockbusters, but then again, I also loved the first phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Did you know that cinema comes from kinema, the Greek for movement?
