Jessie Buckley and Michael B. Jordan with their Best Acting #Oscars from tonight's Academy Awards ceremony. Full winners list here: musesofmedia.ca/2026/03/15/the…

Jessie Buckley makes history as the first Irish actress to win an Academy Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Agnes in ‘Hamnet.’ #Oscars

Ryan Coogler wrote a period film, about blues music in a decling industry to honor his uncle. I hope this #Sinners journey teaches you to stop chasing trends, listening to the doom scrollers, and what doesn’t work and can’t happen, & write the story that moves you.

I’ll never understand how the Academy works. How can a movie be the best in cinematography, music score, screenwriting and even nab an acting award for the lead (who played a dual role), but NOT be good enough to win Best Picture?

Rachel Morrison, the first woman to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Cinematography, and Autumn Durald Arkapaw, the first to win, were honoured for films directed by Black filmmakers. Morrison did the cinematography for Dee Rees’ ‘Mudbound’ and worked with Coogler!
