2023 Oscars recap: Biggest wins, all the star-studded performances and more

"Top Gun: Maverick" won the Oscar for best sound.

Other nominees in the category included "All Quiet on the Western Front," "Avatar: The Way of Water," "The Batman" and "Elvis."

Sarah Polley won the Academy Award for best adapted screenplay for "Women Talking."

"First of all, I just want to thank the academy for not being mortally offended by the words 'women' and 'talking' put so close together like that," Polley said in her acceptance speech.

Polley said the film, which is based on the 2018 novel by Miriam Toews, shows a world where people who "don't agree on every single issue manage to sit together in a room and carve out a way together, free of violence."

She added, "They do so not just by talking, but also by listening."

"The last line of our film is delivered by a young woman to a new baby, and she says, 'Your story will be different from ours.' It's a promise, a commitment, and an anchor, and it's what I would like to say with all my might to my three kids ... as they make their way through this complicated, beautiful world," Polley concluded.

Other nominees in the category included Edward Berger, Lesley Paterson and Ian Stokell for "All Quiet on the Western Front"; Rian Johnson for "Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery"; Kazuo Ishiguro for "Living"; and Ehren Kruger, Eric Warren Singer and Christopher McQuarrie, with a story by Peter Craig and Justin Marks, for "Top Gun: Maverick."

Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert won the Oscar for best original screenplay Sunday night for "Everything Everywhere All at Once." Scheinert dedicated his win to his public school teachers in his acceptance speech, saying, "You guys educated me, you inspired me and you taught me to be less of a butthead."

Kwan, meanwhile, paid tribute to his mother, whom he credited for protecting his "inner storyteller." He also honored his wife, whom he said had protected him "from the most negative thoughts, especially when I'm writing."

Other nominees in the category included Martin McDonagh for "The Banshees of Inisherin," Tony Kushner and Steven Spielberg for "The Fabelmans," Todd Field for "Tár" and Ruben Östlund for "Triangle of Sadness."

"Avatar: The Way of Water" won the Academy Award for best visual effects. Visual effects supervisors Eric Saindon and Daniel Barrett took the stage to accept the trophy and thanked director James Cameron and the cast and crew.

The other four films nominated in the category included "All Quiet on the Western Front," "The Batman," "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" and "Top Gun: Maverick."
