THE countdown It's started. This evening (the 19th in the USA, the 1st in Italy) will take place one of the most important evenings in the world of cinema: the night of the Oscars. The presentation of the most coveted golden statuette will take place on the stage of the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles. Presentation of the 96th edition of Academy The Awards, the most anticipated event since showbitz (and not only that), it will be – for the fourth time in a row – the actor and comedian Jimmy Kimmel. After three years of pandemic which overwhelmed the cinema sector (cinemas closed, filming stopped, boom streaming platforms), the year 2023 was marked by the return of the public to the cinema. Regardless of the films and their workers, the undisputed protagonists of the evening, what has made the Californian ceremony even more emblematic over the years are the twists and turns, some controversies and quite a few blunder. From Marlon Brando who, in 1973, refused to accept the award for “Best Leading Actor” in the film The Godfather due to the “film industry's treatment of American Indians” to Roberto Benigni's unforgettable rush to the stage in 1999, responding to Sophia Loren's cry: “And the Oscar goes to… Robberto! “. From Will Smith's slap to Chris Rock through the hashtag #Oscarsowhite, which denounced the imbalance between white and African-American winners. In short, a succession of emblematic moments which – along with the films – have made the Night of the Stars an even more unmissable event for all film buffs.
