LOS ANGELES — Hollywood loves a good comeback story, and this year's Academy Awards will feature a few of them.
There's former matinee idol Brendan Fraser, whose turn as a morbidly obese teacher in "The Whale" has earned him a lead actor nomination. There's onetime child star Ke Huy Quan, who scored a supporting actor nod for "Everything Everywhere All at Once" three decades after stepping away from acting.
Then there are the Oscars themselves, which will be looking for their own shot at redemption on Sunday night.
