The 96th annual Academy Award nominations raised the definitive movie question of the season: Is this the year of “Barbie” or “Oppenheimer?” We still don’t quite know since they each got multiple nominations (“Barbie” with eight and “Oppenheimer” with 13). In any case, it will be another excuse for us to use the term “Barbenheimer.”
Kyle Buchanan, The New York Times’s awards-season columnist, previously had predicted that because of the amount of good movies and impressive talent we have been treated to this past year, it was hard to say what film, if any, was likely to sweep in the big categories of best picture, best director, best actor and best actress — and he was right. “Oppenheimer,” “Barbie,” “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “The Holdovers,” and “Poor Things” all got nominations in the best picture category and for the most part, received nominations in all the big categories.
The 96th annual Academy Award nominations are set. Nominee frontrunners “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” received 8 and 13 nominations respectively leading the “Best Picture” category. This year, The New York Times columnist, Kyle Buchanan had said that for the most part, it was a tough call to determine which film would win in each major category, but we will find out soon. In the “actor” category,“. Sterling K. Brown, Robert De Niro, Robert Downey Jr., Ryan Gosling, and Mark Ruffalo are competing in the “Best Supporting Actor” category while the “Best Actress” category includes Annette Bening, Lily Gladstone, Sandra Hüller, Carey Mulligan, and Emma Stone among other noteworthy films in other categories.
The animated feature category includes films such as “The Boy and the Heron”, “Elemental”, “Nimona”, “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse”, and “Robot Dreams”. In the adapted screenplay category “American Fiction, “Barbie”, “Oppenheimer”, “Poor Things”, and “The Zone of Interest” compete. The awards also recognize and cover numerous other categories including Production Design, Costume Design, Cinematography, Editing, Makeup and Hairstyling, Sound, Visual Effects, Original Score, and many other distinctive categories.
These nominees include films of different genres and approaches with diverse stories and themes, offering a wide range of talent in the movie industry and a competition that is expected to be intense. It is clear that there are several films that have generated significant excitement and critical acclaim which has led to their respective nominations for recognition at the 96th Academy Awards.
