The Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, are a set of 24 awards for artistic and technical merit in the American film industry. The 90th Academy Awards ceremony will honor the best films of 2017 and will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, on March 4, 2018 at 5:00 p.m.. Comedian Jimmy Kimmel will host for a second consecutive year, making Kimmel the first person to host back-to-back ceremonies since Billy Crystal in 1997 and 1998.
In fact, the results of this year's Oscar race is one of the most unpredictable in recent years. The Academy does not use a relative majority system to elect winners. This system contributes to the victory of consensus over passion. This means that the second and third choices of the members of the Film Academy can greatly affect the definition of the winner. The American Film Academy decided to change its composition because of a racist scandal around the Oscars in 2016. Now among the film academics there are fewer men and white race members.
Only 4 women during the existence of the award were nominated for "Best Director": Lina Wertmuller, Jane Kempion, Sofia Coppola and Katherine Bigelow. By the way, Ms. Bigelow became the first and still the only woman to receive Oscar in the category "Best Director" for the "Lord of the storm" in 2010. Therefore, it is expected that Greta Gerving will break this circle and will become the fifth female nominee in the category "Best Director" for her film "Lady Bird".
We are looking forward to the ceremony to dispel all rumors and set all the points above and.
