The 92nd Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), honored the best films of 2019 and took place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California.[1] After more than a decade of holding the Academy Award ceremonies towards the end of February, the 92nd Academy Awards took place earlier in the month, on February 9, 2020.[1][2] During the ceremony, AMPAS presented Academy Awards (commonly referred to as Oscars) in 24 categories. The ceremony was televised in the United States by ABC, produced by Lynette Howell Taylor and Stephanie Allain; it was directed by Glenn Weiss.[3] Citing the success of the format at the 91st presentation in 2019, ABC announced that the ceremony would again be conducted without a host.[4]
In related events, the Academy held its 11th Annual Governors Awards ceremony at the Grand Ballroom of the Hollywood and Highland Center on October 27, 2019.[5]
The South Korean film Parasite led the ceremony with four awards, including Best Director, Best International Feature Film (previously known as Best Foreign Language Film), Best Original Screenplay, and Best Picture, becoming the first film not in the English language to do so.[6][7] The British war film 1917 won three awards, while Ford v Ferrari, Joker, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood won two awards each.[8] The Best Animated Feature went to Toy Story 4.

Ceremony information[]
During its board of directors meeting in April 2019, the Academy voted to rename the Best Foreign Language Film category to Best International Feature Film, and allow animated and documentary films to be eligible for the award. The requirement for nominees to have the majority of their dialogue be in a language other than English remains in force.[17][18] The category of Best Makeup and Hairstyling was also expanded from seven finalists and three nominees to ten finalists and five nominees.[19]
ABC Entertainment president Karey Burke announced in January 2020 that the ceremony would once again forego a host, citing the success of the format from the previous ceremony (necessitated by the withdrawal of originally announced host Kevin Hart). Burke stated that the ceremony would feature "huge entertainment values, big musical numbers, comedy, and star power".[20][21]
Ceremony highlights[]
The show opened with a comedy routine featuring Steve Martin and Chris Rock; following the host-less ceremony from the prior year, ABC's vice president of special programming Rob Mills said they felt it was tradition to open the ceremony with a bit of comedy before starting the awards.[22]
The performance of "Into the Unknown" from Frozen II featured Idina Menzel and Aurora joined by nine of Elsa's voice actresses from international dubs of the film.[23] Up-and-coming actors such as Beanie Feldstein, Kelly Marie Tran, Anthony Ramos, Utkarsh Ambudkar and George MacKay were used introduce some of the veteran presenters, an idea by producers Lynette Howell Taylor and Stephanie Allain to highlight inclusion within the Hollywood community.[22] James Corden and Rebel Wilson presented the award for Best Visual Effects in cat outfits that poked fun at the critically-panned film Cats they had both starred in; Mills said Corden had come up with this idea.[22]
A major highlight of the ceremony was Eminem's surprise performance of "Lose Yourself". The song had been nominated for and ultimately won Best Original Song in 2003, but Eminem declined to attend the ceremony due to his lack of confidence that the song would actually win, among other factors.[24] The idea of bringing Eminem back originated from Mills and the Academy, wanting to keep a "high energy" musical act in line with Justin Timberlake and Queen + Adam Lambert's opening performances during the 89th and 91st Academy Awards, respectively, as well as to find a way to given Eminem a chance to perform his winning song. Further, Eminem found the opportunity timely as he had just released a new album, Music to Be Murdered By. The performance was a closely-held secret by the ceremony's producers, and Eminem was reportedly given the option to drop out of the show if word of the performance leaked, and thus was scheduled in mid-ceremony rather than as an opening act so that if he did back out, it would not have disrupted the program.[25][22]
The audience revolted when the lights went off on Parasite's cast and crew as they were accepting their award for Best Picture.[26] It is well-known that acceptance speeches are being cut down due to the longer than usual running time of the Academy Awards.
Viewership[]
An estimated 23.6 million viewers watched the ceremony live, which represents a 20% drop of 6 million viewers from the prior award ceremony; the program held a 5.3 rating for adults aged 18–49. The ceremony remained the highest-viewed award show of the television season, as declining viewership is a phenomenon seen across all awards programs over the past few years.[27] Nonetheless, the 92nd annual ceremony was watched by the smallest audience the awards show has ever received.[28]
