Photo-Illustration: Vulture On Sunday night, two Oscar narratives will come into conflict. The first says that Everything Everywhere All at Once is likely to win — and win big. The A24 hit has scored at almost every industry precursor, going four for four at the Directors Guild, Producers Guild, Screen Actors Guild, and Writers Guild Awards.
