This Tuesday morning (24), the Oscars officially kicked off with the announcement of the nominations , made by actors Allison Williams (“Get Out” and “M3gan”) and Riz Ahmed (“The Sound of Silence”).
For those who haven’t seen anything, or almost nothing, there’s still time to make up for lost time until the ceremony, scheduled for March 12th.
Champion of nominations, with 11, “Everything in Everywhere at the Same Time” had already left the poster and is streaming only for rental. After the nominations, the film was once again on the schedule at Cine Belas Artes.
Other titles are in theaters, such as “Os Fabelmans”, or pre-scheduled to premiere before the award ceremony, as is the case of “Tár”, which hits the screens this Thursday (26), or “Os Banshees de Inisherin”, which premieres on February 2.
A few others made it into the streaming catalogues, like “Top Gun: Maverick”. There is also the surprise “Nothing New on the Front”, a German Netflix production that won 9 nominations. And there are still those with no premiere date scheduled, such as “Living”, but which can gain momentum with the nominations. Check out how to watch the nominees.
