Last Sunday, over 100 filmmakers and actors gathered in Union Station in Los
Angeles to celebrate the 93rd Academy Awards. The ceremony had been postponed
from its original date of Feb. 28 to extend the eligibility period for films and
to account for some of the impacts of Covid-19 on Hollywood. Producer Steven
Soderbergh emphasized that the ceremony would be shot “like a movie,” but did
not specify what he meant. It turns out that this meant no music between awards
and reorganized categories.
