Hong Chau (The Whale) and Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once) were both nominated for Best Supporting Actress.




It's the first time two Asian actresses have been nominated at the same time in an acting category.




Michell Yeoh was the only woman of colour nominated for Best Actress for her role in the nomination-leading Everything Everywhere All at Once and would be the first Asian and only second woman of colour to win it ever, after Halle Berry in 2002 for her role in Monster's Ball.




But there was some disappointment on social media that Park Chan-wook's critically acclaimed film Decision to Leave was not nominated in the Best International Film category.




Park Chan-wook's DECISION TO LEAVE getting snubbed at the Oscars across the board, and especially in Best International Feature, is really frustrating. Just a great work of art on every conceivable front. pic.twitter.com/CURgTEPmdm Isaac Feldberg (@isaacfeldberg) January 24, 2023




Other disappointments included Viola Davis not being nominated for her role in The Woman King, as well as Danielle Deadwyler's snub for her portrayal of Emmett Till's mother in Till.

The humble Indian gooseberry, commonly known as amla, truly deserves its superfood status. The translucent green fruit, which derives its name from the Sanskrit word ‘Amlaki’ meaning “nectar of life”, can protect us against countless ailments, be it the common cold, cancer, or infertility. Ayurveda doctors claim that amla fruit can help balance the three doshas (Kapha/vista/pitta) in the body and eliminate the underlying cause of many diseases.

Disenchanted (2022) Review

 DON’T LOOK DOWN! (AND DON’T WATCH THIS MOVIE) Survival movies have been around for quite some time and have had mixed results with viewers.

Sometimes narrative can be well-founded within true life events (i.e., based on a true story), while other times some survival accounts were created from fiction.
