Oscar Best Picture Nominees
This year's Best Picture race is hotly contested, with "Sinners" leading with 16 nominations [https://www.today.com/popculture/movies/how-to-watch-best-picture-nominees-oscars-rcna262125]. "Hamnet" and "One Battle After Another" are also contenders.
"Sinners" massive nomination haul doesn't guarantee a win; remember that "The Revenant" lost to "Spotlight" despite more nominations in 2016. It's all about momentum and how the Academy votes on the day. "Hamnet" is a dark horse, but its strong showing in the BAFTAs could translate to Oscar success. Don't underestimate the power of a historical drama with a tragic core. "One Battle After Another" is generating buzz for its unique narrative structure. If it wins, it would be a major upset, proving the Academy is willing to embrace experimental filmmaking.
