Despite the fact that “Triangle of Sadness” was in contention for the Best Director, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay awards, the In Memoriam failed to acknowledge the death of Charlbi Dean. The actress plays Yaya in the Ruben Östlund-directed black comedy, and Oscars viewers were quick to point out the Academy’s ignorance on social media.
Multiple fans felt that Dean’s omission was bad in general, but her association with “Triangle of Sadness” makes the Academy’s shortsightedness even worse as she’s a big part of the movie. “She was just at the beginning of her acting career and had so much ahead of her. I’m sad the Oscars failed to honor her,” @maeisafraid wrote, echoing the views of many viewers. “[The] academy not including charlbi dean in the tribute is disgusting rest in peace queen,” @EllasDirection added.
For some viewers, the omission of Dean put a dampener on an event that they enjoyed, for the most part. “I’m still troubled by the speech interruptions and the lack of Charlbi Dean in the In Memoriam, but yeah, it was a solid ceremony, @Deltanz noted. Of course, this omission wasn’t the only one to rub some social media users the wrong way.
