The nominations for the Oscars, the world's most prestigious award in entertainment, have been announced. The academy authorities announced the nomination list on Tuesday evening Bangladesh time. Actress Jussie Beats and actor Jack Quaid announced nominations in 23 categories from the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in California. And this year's Oscar nominee is Christopher Nolan's “Oppenheimer.”
There are now many talented stars in the nominations, but also many new talented performers. Talented stars such as Lily Gladstone and America Ferrera were nominated in recognition of their good work in the audience by Cillian Murphy, Bradley Cooper and Emma Stone.
Before the release there was talk of “Killers of the Flower Moon”. The historical couple Martin Scorsese and DiCaprio hit the big screen again with a bang.
The biggest disappointment on the nomination list was the absence of “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig and actress Margot Robbie. Barbie, the most successful and talked-about film of the year, conquered both the box office and the hearts of audiences last year. The audience's enthusiasm for the film was palpable. It is also the highest-grossing film of the year. At the end of the year, the nominations for the Golden Globe, the Critics' Choice Award and the BAFTA were also impressive. Barbie also received 5 Oscar nominations. However, Barbie was excluded from nominations in the two main categories. Oscar nominations for Greta Gerwig for Best Director and Margot Robbie for Best Actress were pretty much a given. But fans had to cope with disappointment after the nomination was announced. The non-nomination of both was also criticized on social media.
Emma Stone is nominated for best actress for another hit of the year, “Pure Things.” Emma's performance in the film is hailed as her best performance in her career. However, veteran actor Willem Dafoe delivered a strong performance in keeping with Emma. But the actor was deprived of the Oscar stage. He didn't get the nomination either.
Meanwhile, moviegoers expected Greta Lee to be nominated for best actress for “Past Lives” and Penelope Cruz for best supporting actress for “Ferrari” because of their critical acclaim. But even that hope is dashed. The two best artists of the year are also not nominated. In addition, Todd Haynes' film May December, which was selected in the main competition of the 76th Cannes Film Festival, was nominated for the Best Original Screenplay category at the Oscars, but with its three actors Julianne Moore, Natalie Portman and Charles Melton it didn't make the nomination list, which disappointed fans.
