Only 15 movies have won more Oscars than ‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’: Can you name them?
As Gold Derby predicted, “Everything Everywhere All at Once” dominated the 2023 Oscars on Sunday, March 12. In all, A24’s sci-fi hit from filmmakers Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert claimed seven trophies: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actress (Michelle Yeoh), Best Supporting Actor (Ke Huy Quan), Best Supporting Actress (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Best Film Editing. Just how impressive is seven Oscars? In the past 95 years of Academy Awards ceremonies, only 15 films have managed to take home more statuettes.

ABC’s 2023 ceremony was hosted by Jimmy Kimmel for the third time. Throughout the three-and-a-half-hour show, he continued to poke fun at Will Smith‘s infamous Oscar slap of Chris Rock from the previous year. Last time, Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall co-hosted the ceremony together, and before that there were three years of no hosts.
Other than “Everything Everywhere All at Once” dominating with seven Oscars, Netflix’s “All Quiet on the Western Front” also scored big with four wins for Best International Feature, Best Cinematography, Best Production Design and Best Score. Next in line with two victories was A24’s “The Whale,” winning for Best Actor (Brendan Fraser) and Best Makeup & Hairstyling.
