The songwriter Diane Warren has continued her record-breaking streak of losses at the 97th Academy Awards with a defeat in the best song category. The winners were the married composer Clément Ducol and singer-songwriter Camille for El Mal from Emilia Pérez.
Warren, 68, had been in contention for the song The Journey, from Tyler Perry’s Netflix film The Six Triple Eight, about the all-Black, all-female 6,888th battalion during the second world war.
