Stephanie Hsu found out about her Oscar nomination for Everything Everywhere All at Once while flying between Los Angeles and Sydney, but only after she'd done a lovely ritual viewing of the film itself.

Hsu, who plays Joy Wang/Jobu Tupaki in the film, is nominated for best supporting actress, and told Jimmy Fallon about her own personal in-flight viewing on The Tonight Show.

"I wanted to do a ritual for myself. Things have gotten shinier and shinier. And I wanted to have a moment where I got to watch the movie one more time to look back on that moment, of that seed of making, the heartbeat, this special thing we made together. And I hadn’t watched it on a plane," said Hsu.

"I felt like one of those superfans of our own movie where they always say, 'The movie starts and I start weeping.' And that was me, I was so embarrassed. I was like, I hope no one’s seeing me cry at our own movie."
