Sinners cinematographer, Autumn Durald Arkapaw is, has said that the motion picture film is not a scary vampire film
Despite having 14 nominations, Sinners won four awards at the 98th Academy Awards tonight in Hollywood.
It was the second biggest winner on a night where movie stars got the ultimate recognition in Hollywood.
Speaking on her historic Oscars win in the interview room , Autumn Durald Arkapaw said that there was one thing she didn’t get to say onstage during the telecast.
“A lot of little girls that look like me will sleep really well tonight because they want to become cinematographers. And I know that just being on stage, getting this award or movie, that will change so many girls’ lives because they’ll be inspired when they weren’t before.”
She also says she wants to thank all the women who stood up for her because “it takes a village to make stuff like this happen”.
She adds: “This isn’t about me anymore. This is about so much more, and I know that. And I wanted it for all the ladies in the room, and I wanted it for all the girls.”
