Oscars 2023: Everything you need to know!
This year’s favorite twisted sci-fi film, “Everything, everywhere all at once caught everyone’s attention with over 11 nominations. Scroll though to know all the snubs and surprises that are in the store for Oscars 2023.
Oscars 2023 nominations have been announced and this year’s favorite twisted sci-fi film “Everything everywhere all at once” alone has got 11 nominations. “All Quiet on the Western Front,” and “The Banshees of Inisherin” are very closely behind it with having nine Oscar nominations each. All these films are in the race for the “Best picture Award”. The best picture race contains some of the highest grossing films of the year, “Top Gun Maverick”, “Avatar: The Way of Water” and “Elvis”, a musical biopic that became a hit among the audience this year. Other entries in the race include, Steven Spielberg’s “The Fabelmans”, a story about an abusive conductor “Tar”, a in depth look at the lifestyle of residents of a repressive religious community, “Women Talking” and “Triangle of sadness”.
Known for being one of the most divisive plots of the year, “Triangle of Sadness,” has made its place for the nomination for its screenplay and direction. The film is directed by the Swedish filmmaker, Ruben Östlund who did an incredible job of presenting this satire. But for the Best Director Award, he will have to compete with Steven Spielberg, Todd Field (“Tár”), Martin McDonagh (“The Banshees of Inisherin”), and the directing duo of Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert (“Everything Everywhere All at Once”) and is does seems like a tough call. Though the last two best director winners, Jane Campion (“The Power of the Dog”) and Chloe Zhao (“Nomadland”), have been women, this year’s best director category has been dominated entirely by men. Adult oriented movies such as The Fabelmans,” “Tár” and “The Banshees of Inisherin” struggled at the box office due to the pandemic but thanks to the existence of streaming services that provided these films a platform at the time when making revenue was becoming a deal for them. Streaming services helped in filling up the gap led by the loss of theatrical revenue streams.
Ke Buy Quan who is a former child actor known for his work in Indiana Jones has made a comeback with being nominated for the best supporting actor for his performance in the film ” Everything, Everywhere All at Once. This is a big deal as the actor decided to completely give up on acting as he was convinced about the end of his career. Another such name here is Brendan Fraser who is a former action star whose acting career got affected by his personal issues and health related complications but he has been nominated for the Best Actor Award for his amazing performance in “The Whale”. They will have to compete with the most brilliant performances of the year and that includes Viola Davis in “The Woman King,” Brad Pitt in “Babylon” and Danielle Deadwyler in “Till,”.
In addition to all the names mentioned above m, the best actor race also includes Austin Butler (“Elvis”), Colin Farrell (“The Banshees of Inisherin”), Bill Nighy (“Living”) and Paul Mescal (“Aftersun”), surprisingly, all these actors are first-time nominees. Other nominees to be noted include Andrea Riseborough’s surprising inclusion for her performance as an alcoholic woman in the little-seen indie “To Leslie”. She is in the race for the best actress Award. Other nominees include Ana de Armas for her amazing act in “Blonde”, Michelle Williams for “The Fabelmans” and Michelle Yeoh for “Everything Everywhere All at Once”.
So, these were the nominee list for this year’s Academy Awards. Television host and comedian Jimmy Kimmel will be hosting the event this year. He has previously been here for the 2017 and 2018 Oscar Awards. Last year, the event was hosted by Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes and Regina Hall which marked Academy’s return in the host format event as it went host-less due to the pandemic.
