Awards Season Winners Set the Stage for the Oscars

On Sunday, the newly renamed 32nd Actor Awards are under way in Los Angeles, hosted by Kristen Bell and presented by SAG-AFTRA as the final pre-Oscars showdown.
Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another arrived as the heavy favourite after wins at the Golden Globes, the BAFTAs and Saturday's Producers Guild Awards, and the record seven-nomination film is seen as most likely to win best ensemble.
Michael B. Jordan took best male actor, upsetting favorite Timothée Chalamet, while Jessie Buckley won best female actor and Sean Penn plus Amy Madigan won supporting prizes Sunday.
Sinners' ensemble victory on Sunday reshaped the Oscar race, giving Warner Bros. two best-picture favorites, while Harrison Ford accepted the Life Achievement Award as `the half point` of his career.
The ceremony was the biggest Hollywood bash since Paramount's $111 billion deal, and Netflix chief executive Ted Sarandos walked the red carpet in jeans.
