Women's power at the Oscars: Lilian Moschen on Hollywood's change!

In the glamorous world of the Oscars, Lilian Moschen is an outstanding voice. The cultural journalist and presenter led the ORF audience through the Oscar night and offered exciting insights and analyzes of the nominees and winners. In an interview with oe24 she talked about her intensive preparation, which accompanies her throughout the year. Her predictions turned out to be accurate, especially the nomination and award of the film “Anora”, which won multiple awards as well as Best Film. Moschen emphasizes that it is a special time for independent films, which has to do with the current situation in Hollywood, as many major studios have had to take a break due to a writers' strike.

An emotional moment of Oscar night was Demi Moore's loss, which weighed heavily on Moschen. However, she emphasizes that Hollywood has changed for the better in recent years, particularly for older actresses who are now given increasingly demanding roles. In her conversation, she reflects on the ongoing change that is also becoming visible in the perception of women in the film industry. However, Moschen criticizes the low presence of women in directing and technical positions in large productions. Christian Moschen reports on Moschen's own art projects that deal with the history of women's rights and emphasizes that International Women's Day offers an opportunity to stand up for equality and freedom.

Voice of change

Lilian Moschen is aware of the challenges that women in the industry continue to overcome. She says that women are often underestimated and need to learn to assert themselves more quickly. In a passionate appeal, she calls for women to raise their voices and show courage to stand up for their rights. Her artwork reflects this struggle by combining words of strength and freedom that encourage women to fight for their dreams. Moschen wonders how important International Women's Day would be if it were no longer necessary. This discussion is central today, when despite progress there are still many obstacles.
