Snubs

Selena Gomez

The trio of core actresses from Emilia Pérez Was often nominated for awards this season, but this time Gomez missed a nod for his leading role. Karla Sofía Gascón and Zoe Saldaña were both recognized by academic voters.

Challengers and Queer

Both director Luca Guadagnino’s eligible films were closed out of Oscars.

Winning a Golden Globe did not generate enough humming to get Challengers A nomination to best score and Daniel Craig missed out an expected best actor nomination to Queer.

Marianne Jean-Baptist

Although she has already gathered several nominations for her emotionally complex lead role in Hard truthsShe was snubbed by the Golden Globes and Oscars.

Angelina Jolie

Regarded as a front runner of many for her performance as title figure in Mary, She was not among those nominated this time for best actress.

A true pain

Although Kieran Culkin dominates the best supportive acting race this season, and actor director Jesse Eisenberg received a nomination for the best original screenplay, the film itself was not nominated for the best image.

Nickel boys

The unique POV film absorption style used in Nickel boys Did not earn it a kinematography nomination, although it is a welcome surprise to see that it gets a best picture nick.

Jon M. Chu

Though Evil Served an impressive 10 nods in general, its director was not nominated himself.

Surprises

The fabric

Although the film has been part of awards conversations all the time, it is still surprising to watch a campy horror movie receive five Oscar nominations, including best image, best director and best original screenplay for Coralie Fargeat and best actress for Demi Moore.

Nosferatu

Like with The drug, It is unexpected to watch a horror film rack up to so many prices – but Nosferatu has not been considered a competitor as much as The fabric hair. Its four nominations for production design, kinematography, costume design and makeup and hairstyles come as a huge shock.

Monica Barbaro

A complete unknown Have won speed in the last few months, and a best supportive actress nods for Barbaro cementing the academy’s love for the film.

Sebastian Stan

The actor served a double nomination on the Golden Globes for Best Actor in both categories – but he won for the comedy Another man. On Oscars he is just nominated to produce Donald Trump in The apprentice.

I’m still here

Fernanda Torres served a Golden Globe for her performance in the Brazilian drama, but it is striking to watch the movie nominated for best image.
