How much will Covid-19 affect the party?

Last year’s Oscars moved to Union Station for an intimate show with a small crowd and plenty of social distancing. This year, a full show with irregular COVID protocols is planned. Attendees must present two negative tests and proof of vaccination. Those who show up or perform do not have to be vaccinated, but must show recent negative COVID tests. Face masks will also be in the mix, for attendees seated next to the orchestra at Dolby and for journalists on the red carpet. After numerous people contracted the virus at the BAFTAs in London on March 13, several nominees have been in self-quarantine, including Branagh and “Belfast” co-star Ciarán Hinds. With infection and hospitalization rates very low, Los Angeles County and the state of California are set to lift many COVID restrictions for indoor events on April 1, five days after the Oscars.

Will Will Smith win his first Oscar?

Nominated twice before for best actor, for “Ali” and “The Pursuit of Happyness,” Will Smith appears to be assured of his first Academy Award. His portrayal of Richard Williams, the father of Venus and Serena, in “King Richard” (“King Richard: A Winning Family”), remains the most likely choice of the season. And the exuberant 53-year-old star’s speech would be one of the liveliest of the night. His victory, however, implies overcoming a formidable competition: that of actor Denzel Washington, who beat him 20 years ago with “Training Day” (“Training Day”) and this time represents a threat with “The Tragedy of Macbeth” ( “The Tragedy of Macbeth”).

Who will make history?

Many of the major awards could feature some major milestones. Ari Wegner, director of photography on “The Power of Dog,” could become the first woman to win that award. Her director, Jane Campion, is also ready to make history. Campion, the first woman to be nominated twice for best direction, would be the third to win the category. It would also be the first time two female directors have won consecutively; Chloe Zhao won the trophy last year for “Nomadland.” Troy Kotsur of “CODA” is on track to become the first deaf actor to win an Oscar. His highly anticipated win would make him and “CODA” co-star Marlee Matlin the only Academy Award-winning deaf actors. And the category of supporting actress, which Ariana DeBose has dominated all season for her great role in Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story” (“Love without barriers”), will be able to reward for the first time an Afro-Latin artist and openly gay. It would also be 60 years after Rita Moreno won for her Anita in the 1961 original, and the third time two actors have won for the same role, after Heath Ledger and Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker, and Marlon Brando and Robert De Niro as Vito Corleone. We’ll have to wait to see if “West Side Story” star Rachel Zegler is there to cheer her on.
