Emma Stone has won the best actress Oscar for “Poor Things”, her second career victory in the category. She defeated Lily Gladstone of “Killers of the Flower Moon” on Sunday night in a race most pundits (权威人士) said was too close to call. Gladstone would have been the first Native American to win a competitive Oscar. Stone appeared shocked when last year’s winner, Michelle Yeoh, announced her name. She hugged and kissed her husband, Dave McCary, before moving into the aisle to hug co-star Mark Ruffalo and director Yorgos Lanthimos.
Stone was honored for her excellent performance as Bella Baxter, a childlike woman in Victorian London who comes to life through a brain transplant and begins a journey of self-discovery. The film is full of black humor set against steampunk (蒸汽朋克风格) visual design. “It’s not about me. It’s about a team that came together to make something greater than the sum of its parts and that is the great thing about making movies,” Stone said. “I am so deeply honored to share this with every cast member and every crew member. Yorgos, thank you for the gift of a lifetime in Bella Baxter.”
Stone is the 13th woman to win two best actress trophies. Her first came in 2017 for the romantic musical “La La Land”. She was nominated (提名) for supporting actress in 2015 and 2019. She also was nominated this year in the best picture category for producing “Poor Things”, which lost to “Oppenheimer”. She was the second woman to be nominated for acting and best picture for the same film after Frances McDormand, who earned both trophies for “Nomadland” in 2021. Stone broke through in 2016 with a starring role in the teen comedy “Easy A”. The 35-year-old actor went on to major roles in “The Help”, multiple “Spider-Man” movies, “Birdland”, “The Battle of the Sexes” and “The Favourite”.
The other leading actress nominees (被提名者) were Annette Bening for “Nyad”, Sandra Hüller for “Anatomy of a Fall” and Carey Mulligan for “Maestro”.
