Here’s the Full List of 2021 Oscar Winners

By Sara Roncero-MenendezApril 25, 2021

Does having an award show after a pandemic shut down movie theaters world wide make sense? Well, don’t think about it too hard. This year’s winners were surprising, with some disappoint in the big winners (really, does Anthony Hopkins need more awards? At least give it to Chadwick), and some hilarious moments. Yuh-Jung Youn’s win for best supporting actress, and her subsequent flirting with Brad Pitt, some of the great speeches from the winners of the documentary and animated shorts, to Glenn Close twerking (yes, it did happen), it was a night to remember.

A reporter by trade, Sara is a lover of horror, sci-fi, and all things pop culture. From indies to classics to even the strangest schlock, all movies and TV shows are fair game. She believes Batman is the most fascinating superhero, and that Silent Hill is one of the best horror franchises ever made (as long as you don't count the movies). Fun Fact: The only movie Sara will not rewatch is The Room -- once was more than enough.
