Oscar Nominations 2023: Meet the Nominees 5

This morning, the ever-wonderful Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams announced this year’s Academy Award nominees. In 2022, audiences flocked to movie theaters again, eager to see some of the best, and most talked about titles on the marquee. As the award season has gotten underway, it has been clear that there were a handful of titles that would undoubtedly dominate the conversation after picking up nominations (and wins) across critic groups and industry guilds, alike. While many of the nominations this morning were expected, there were a handful of surprise nominations—which always makes the Oscar nominations morning that much more exciting.

In the lead-up to the Oscars, The Banshees of Inisherin, Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, and All Quiet on the Western Front quickly became top contenders, with each film racking up an impressive number of nominations and wins across the entertainment industry—including most recently at the BAFTAS, where the three films were clear favorites. But did that momentum carry them through to the Academy’s ballots? You’ll have to scroll down to find out.
