The winners of the 2023 Oscars have been unveiled and Everything Everywhere All at Once won almost everything everywhere during the four-hour ceremony.

The action-comedy starring Michelle Yeoh went into the night as the favourite, with 11 nominations to its name, ahead of Netflix’s All Quiet on the Western Front and The Banshees of Inisherin, with nine nominations apiece. It converted seven of those into tiny golden statuettes, including Best Picture, Best Director, Original Screenplay and Best Actress for Michelle Yeoh – making her the first Asian woman to be recognised in the leading actress category in Oscars history. The film went on to take another two acting prizes, including Supporting Actor for Ke Huy Quan and Supporting Actress for Jamie Lee Curtis, while the Best Actor prize went to Brendan Fraser for The Whale.

The unlikely awards contender – a quirky meta-adventure that includes multiverses, a deadly bagel and people with hot dogs for fingers – marks a radical contrast to the more traditional BAFTA winner last month, All Quiet on the Western Front, which won four awards – including the prize for Best International Feature. Netflix also took home the Best Animated Feature prize for Guillermo del Toro’s stop-motion Pinocchio.

Other notable winners included the timely Navalny for Best Documentary and Best Original Screenplay for Sarah Polley’s Women Talking, while the more conventional contenders, such as The Fabelmans, Elvis and Tar, went home empty-handed.
