Oscars 2023: Banshees go home empty-handed, but Ireland scoops two awards 

It was a disappointing night for the Banshees of Inisherin, which was nominated for nine Academy Awards and won none, as Everything Everywhere All At Once was a runaway success at the Oscars

The Irish Goodbye team and Tallaght man Richard Baneham had a good night

A room full of A-list celebrities singing Happy Birthday might not be how everyone spends their 31st birthday but it was the cherry on top of a great day for actor James Martin and a much-needed high for Irish viewers.

The star of An Irish Goodbye saw the audience of the Dolby Theatre join together to sing for him as he and his fellow cast members accepted an Academy Award for best live-action short film on Sunday night.
