Although the 2025 Oscars were tepid in their TDS, issues from the era of DEI still remained a strong force in the background. A requirement for diversity across a broad spectrum of creative and technical rubrics meant that many movies and documentaries that Americans loved were simply “unfit” for Hollywood’s biggest night. Americans, of course, give the ultimate award with money and viewership.
