Best Actor

In a category filled with first-time nominees, Brendan Fraser took home the Oscar for best actor for his turn as a 600-pound college instructor mostly confined to his apartment in “The Whale.” After wins at the Screen Actors Guild and the Critics Choice Awards, the Academy Award capped a remarkable comeback.




Original Song

“Naatu Naatu,” the rollicking dance hit from the Indian blockbuster “RRR,” won the Oscar for best original song, beating out two songs featuring American pop megastars.
