Jane CampionB次元官网网址檚 gothic western B次元官网网址淭he Power of the DogB次元官网网址� led nominations to the 94th Academy Awards, where streaming services more than ever before swept over HollywoodB次元官网网址檚 top honors.
CampionB次元官网网址檚 Netflix film landed a leading 12 nominations in nominations announced Tuesday, including nods for best picture, best director and all of its top actors: Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons and Kodi Smit-McPhee.
Campion, a nominee for 1993B次元官网网址瞫 B次元官网网址淭he Piano,B次元官网网址� became the first woman to ever be nominated twice for best director. Last year, Chlo茅 Zhao became just the second woman to ever win the award. CampionB次元官网网址檚 director of photography, Ari Wegner, also became the second woman ever nominated for best cinematography. The only previous woman to do so was Rachel Morrison for B次元官网网址淢udboundB次元官网网址� in 2018.
Denis VilleneuveB次元官网网址檚 B次元官网网址淒uneB次元官网网址� followed closely behind with 10 nominations spread out largely in the technical categories as the academy gravitated to the craft of VilleneuveB次元官网网址檚 science-fiction epic.
The nominees for best picture are: B次元官网网址淏elfastB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淭he Power of the DogB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淒uneB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淒rive My CarB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淲est Side StoryB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淒onB次元官网网址檛 Look UpB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淟icorice PizzaB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淐ODAB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淜ing RichardB次元官网网址�; B次元官网网址淣ightmare Alley.B次元官网网址�
Best picture has never been won by a film from a streaming service, but half of the 10 nominees came from streaming services. This year, the odds may be better than ever that a streamer will finally barrel through one of the last walls of Hollywood tradition.
Apple notched its first best-picture nomination with the deaf drama B次元官网网址淐ODA.B次元官网网址� Netflix backed both B次元官网网址淭he Power of the DogB次元官网网址� and Adam McKayB次元官网网址檚 apocalyptic comedy B次元官网网址淒onB次元官网网址檛 Look Up.B次元官网网址� And both B次元官网网址淜ing RichardB次元官网网址� and B次元官网网址淒uneB次元官网网址� (despite the protests of its director) debuted simultaneously in theaters and on HBO Max.
In pulling from films released in myriad ways, the Oscar nominations reflected the tumult of pandemic year for Hollywood that began with many theaters shuttered and ended with Sony PicturesB次元官网网址� B次元官网网址淪pider-Man: No Way HomeB次元官网网址� smashing box-office records. Spidey, though, landed only a single nomination, for visual effects.
A largely virtual awards season added some unpredictability to this yearB次元官网网址檚 nominations, which were announced by actors Leslie Jordan and Tracee Ellis Ross. This yearB次元官网网址檚 Oscars will be delayed to make way for the Olympics, the Oscars will be held March 27 and will return to their usual venue, the Dolby Theatre.
And there were surprises all around. Lady Gaga, star of B次元官网网址淗ouse of Gucci,B次元官网网址� was overlooked in the uber-competitive best actress category. Nominated instead were Jessica Chastain, B次元官网网址淭he Eyes of Tammy FayeB次元官网网址�; Olivia Colman, B次元官网网址淭he Lost DaughterB次元官网网址�; Pen茅lope Cruz, B次元官网网址淧arallel MothersB次元官网网址�; Nicole Kidman, B次元官网网址淏eing the RicardosB次元官网网址�; and Kristen Stewart for B次元官网网址淪pencerB次元官网网址� B次元官网网址� whose hopes for her first Oscar nomination had seemed dashed after she was snubbed by the Screen Actors Guild.
B次元官网网址淒rive My Car,B次元官网网址� Ryusuke HamaguchiB次元官网网址檚 masterful three-hour Japanese drama, scored major nominations including best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay. The academy, which in 2020 made Bong Joon HoB次元官网网址檚 Korean thriller B次元官网网址淧arasiteB次元官网网址� the best picture winner, has drifted overseas in recent years, as more international members have been added to help diversify the organization.
The nominees for best actor are: Will Smith, B次元官网网址淜ing RichardB次元官网网址�; Javier Bardem, B次元官网网址淏eing the RicardosB次元官网网址�; Benedict Cumberbatch, B次元官网网址淭he Power of the DogB次元官网网址�; Andrew Garfield, B次元官网网址淭ick, Tick B次元官网网址� Boom!B次元官网网址� and Denzel Washington, B次元官网网址淭he Tragedy of Macbeth.B次元官网网址�

As COVID-19 cases surged in the last two months due to the omicron variant, much of Oscar season also turned virtual. Last year, the pandemic led the academy to host a delayed Oscars in a socially distanced ceremony at Los AngelesB次元官网网址� Union Station. Ratings plummeted to an all-time low of 9.85 million viewers.
This year, the academy has yet to map out plans for its show, except that it will include a host for the first time since 2018. For better or worse, the Academy Awards will also be without its usual lead-in. The Golden Globes in January were an untelevised non-event after NBC said it wouldnB次元官网网址檛 air them in 2022 while the beleaguered Hollywood Foreign Press reformed itself after ethics and diversity criticism.
Other changes were more subtle but potentially impactful. For the first time, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences ruled out hard-copy DVD screeners for its members, who instead could watch submissions on the academyB次元官网网址檚 streaming platform.
