Ke Huy Quan won the Oscar for best supporting actor on Sunday night for his performance in "Everything Everywhere All at Once."

Quan began his acceptance speech by sending a message to his 84-year-old mother, who he said was watching from home. "Mom, I just won an Oscar!" he said.

"My journey started on a boat, I spent a year in a refugee camp and, somehow, I ended up here on Hollywood's biggest stage," Quan continued. "They say stories like this only happen in the movies. I cannot believe it's happening to me. This... this is the American dream."

Quan also gave a shout-out to his wife Echo, who he said told him his time would come one day.

"Dreams are something you have to believe in," he said. "I almost gave up on mine. To all of you out there, please keep your dreams alive."

Other actors nominated in the category included Brendan Gleeson for "The Banshees of Inisherin," Brian Tyree Henry for "Causeway," Judd Hirsch for "The Fabelmans" and Barry Keoghan for "The Banshees of Inisherin."

"Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio" won the Academy Award for best animated feature film.

"Animation is cinema. Animation is not a genre," del Toro said during his acceptance speech, dedicating the award to his family, his kids and his late parents.

The other films nominated in the category included "Marcel the Shell with Shoes On," "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish," "The Sea Beast" and "Turning Red."

Kimmel wasted no time and addressed the infamous Will Smith slap from the 2022 Oscars during his opening monologue.

“We want you to have fun, feel safe, and most importantly, we want me to feel safe,” Kimmel said. “So, we have strict policies in place. If anyone in this theater commits an act of violence at any point during the show, you will be awarded the Oscar for best actor and permitted to give a 19-minute long speech.”

“But seriously, the academy has a crisis team in place. If anything unpredictable or violent happens during the ceremony, just do what you did last year. Nothing. Sit there and do absolutely nothing,” Kimmel joked.

The talk show host kicked off the 95th Academy Awards in a big way by parachuting onto the Dolby Theater stage “Top Gun” style.

He began by welcoming everyone to the 95th Oscars and dove right into cracking jokes at those in the audience including AMC star Nicole Kidman, saying that he was happy to see her “finally been released from that abandoned AMC.”

Kimmel also took a jab at Seth Rogen and Steven Spielberg, who worked together on “The Fabelmans,” which is Oscar-nominated tonight, and pointed out that Tom Cruise isn’t at the show tonight.

“If you are hoping to get a look at Tom Cruise, he’s not here. Or maybe he is here, maybe that’s Tom Cruise right there wearing a Judd Hirsch ‘Mission Impossible’ mask,” Kimmel said pointing to Judd Hirsch.

As stars graced the champagne carpet at the 2023 Oscars, several were seen reacting with excitement to one another's arrivals.

Stephanie Hsu was seen holding hands with fellow nominee and "Everything Everywhere All at Once" co-star Michelle Yeoh.

Jamie Lee Curtis showed love for her fellow "Everything Everywhere All at Once" co-star James Hong, kissing him on the cheek.

Former "Jungle Cruise" co-stars Emily Blunt and Dwayne Johnson also shared a fun moment, flashing smiles and laughing while posing together on the carpet.
