It also scored the trophies for Best Director, Best Editing and Best Original Screenplay for Sean Baker. Mikey Madison was awarded Best Actress for her turn in the title role of Ani in the film. ”This is very surreal," she said on stage. "I grew up in LA but Hollywood always felt so far for me. To be standing in this room is really incredible.” Madison went on to echo sentiments she expressed at the BAFTAs, saying that she wanted to "recognise and honour the sex worker community. I will continue to support you and be an ally.” Adrien Brody landed Best Actor for The Brutalist, and Keiran Culkin and Zoe Saldaña scored Best Supporting Actor and Actress for A Real Pain and Emilia Pérez respectively. ”My grandmother came to this country in 1961," Saldaña said on receiving her statuette. ”I am the proud child of immigrant parents with dreams and dignity and hard-working hands and I am the first American of Dominican origin to win an Academy Award and I know I will not be the last.” The 97th Academy Awards, which marks the closing of the film and TV industry's 2025 awards season, was held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles and capably compered by comedian and TV host Conan O’Brien.
