Oscars 2022 live updates: Japan's Drive My Car wins Best International Feature

The 94th Academy Awards are underway in Hollywood, on the biggest night in the film industry’s year. The first award went to Dune, for best sound. It was likely to be the first of several awards for Denis Villeneuve’s science-fiction epic, which is favoured to win in many of the technical categories.

The Queen of Basketball, about the basketball great Lusia Harris, took best short documentary film. Its executive producers include Steph Curry and Shaquille O’Neal. The Long Goodbye, a blistering fictional short starring Riz Ahmed also won, as did The Windshield Wiper for best animated short.

The first broadcast award went, fittingly, to Ariana DeBose, who became the first openly LGBTQ actor and first Latina to win best supporting actress. Her win came 60 years after Rita Moreno won for the same role in the 1961 original West Side Story. DeBose thanked Moreno for leading the way for “tons of Anitas like me.”

Greeted by a standing ovation of audience members applauding in sign language, Troy Kotsur won Best Supporting Actor in CODA. and touching and brilliant.
