The Oscars 2021 has come to an end and brought with it an exhilarating set of winners. In a stark contrast to the annual award show, this year the scaled-down Oscars 2021 stood out on many levels.

Chadwick Boseman was beaten to the Best Actor award at this year’s Oscars by Sir Anthony Hopkins. Boseman had long been the favourite to receive the award for his posthumous performance in the August Wilson adaptation Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, but the Academy ultimately recognised Hopkins for his turn in The Father.
