were _ the entire nomadland company. were there any surprises, peter?se to many that sir anthony hopkins was named best actor at the age of 83. of course he has won an oscar before four silence of the lambs, winning this time for the father and a story that resonates with many families struggling with an older relative, in this case the father of the family, struggling with dementia, and the gradual loss of memory and how that challenges the family dynamic. there anthony hopkins wasn't on hand, certainly not here — i understand he is in wales at the moment — so we didn't see him accepting his award. a surprise, because it was a very challenging category that he was in, very strong competition. but i think really topping his career with that very gritty performance that he put in. thank you very much. peter bowes, covering the oscars for others. well, we can now speak to michael schneider, who's senior editor at variety magazine. good to talk to you as well. give us your take on how this went. very unusual, unusual times — they had to do it very differen

and i think frances mcdormand, well, she will win best actress for her role in nomadland, but really because of the recent demographic changes in the academy's membership, it has got much harder than it used to be to predict who will win the acting races. anyway, emma jones has been taking a look at the field. it really is anyone�*s guess this year as to who of all these nominees will take home an oscar. even the nominations had surprises. the best actor category includes chadwick boseman for ma rainey�*s black bottom, asian american steven yeun for minari, and londoner riz ahmed for sound of metal. two past oscar winners sir anthony hopkins for the father and gary oldman are in the running and it still carries a thrill for oldman who plays the writer of citizen kane in david finch's mank. you know, you have to pinch yourself. you go, "oh, i have got an oscar." it is not something you really think about in the moment of doing it, of going into a project. it is only after, where people start throwing your name around. it is a nice thing. and the best actress category is even harder to
