Among the uncertain ones, Lily Gladstone managed to win an award in the Best Female Actor in a Leading Role category.
Winning this prestigious award for her stellar performance in Martin Scorsese’sKillers of the Flower Moon, the actress not only reached a career milestone but also managed to make history as the first indigenous actor to do so in history. And now, seeing this accolade associated with her name, many think she might become the first indigenous actor to bag an Oscar in the upcoming award ceremony.

“I feel the good in what you have done, what you do, This has been a hard year for all of us. Those in this room, those not in this room. The win is getting to be here. It’s getting to be on set.
