We wouldn't be The Film Experience if we had an easy time letting go of Oscar night. It'll be time to move on soon but here are random photos to enjoy from parties and backstage and whatnot

Amy Adams and Vin Diesel - try to imagine this movieChiron & Kevin kissing again. This time in totally different happiers but also confusing context
Janelle Monae in good spirits at the Governor's Ball. But when isn't she?

Viola, gleeful. As well she should be. A lot of people change clothes between the show and the partiesI'm including this one because I love walk off stage photos. Also because two things: Damien Chazelle always looks so sinister but he is actually so nice (I met him in a few times in 2014); Halle Berry has now presented Best Actor and Best Director to the two youngest recipients of those prizes of all time.

Emma Stone burst into tears when Brie Larson hugged her backstageTrying to imagine this conversation. It was probably disgustingly gracious on both sides which is perfectI love this shot. Lesley Mann is an undervalued assett to movies. And she's making like Belle from Beauty & The Beast here

Dominic Cooper finally gets cozy with his girfriend Ruth Negga

It makes me giggle that Casey is standing so far away at first.

FINALLY...

I know I've used this one before but everything about its evocative nature the hallway, the glamorous stars turning in unglamourous hallway, the inscrutable emotions, will always scream 89th Academy Awards to me...
