Sets are often discarded after productions, with thousands of tons of materials going into dumpsters each year. Now art directors and their allies are pushing for a more sustainable approach.

The Malaysian-born actor made history by winning the Academy Award for best actress in a leading role for her performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once.

The former child star capped off a successful awards season with an unsurprising win. Quan is only the second Asian performer to receive this award after Haing S. Ngor for The Killing Fields in 1985.

With four nominations, more Asian performers were recognized by the Academy in 2023 than in any single year in its history. In other respects, this year was a step back from diversity at the Oscars.

The production company A24 put the hit film's iconic costumes and hot dog hands on the block, with proceeds going to three groups. The priciest item, an animatronic raccoon, went for $90k.
