The nominations for Best Actor in a Leading Role at this year's Academy Awards have just been announced from the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Los ...

Paul Mescal grabs a stunning nomination for his beautiful performance as a young father in Aftersun to complete the line up. The 73-year-old has received widespread critical acclaim for his deeply moving performance as a terminally-ill gentleman, who dedicated his life to simply living by the rules and doing what was expected of him, before embracing the true beauty of life in his final months. Five actors have been recognized for the first time for their performances in the past year, which should provide a nice shake-up to the Hollywood hierarchy.

Though Indian films have not figured prominently in the Oscar ceremonies on the whole, some from the industry have made their mark and won the coveted prize ...

Overall, I would say we all agree that it was because of the music maestro A R Rahman that the song won the coveted prize.” The documentary was produced by Indian producer Guneet Monga’s Sikhya Entertainment and directed by the Iranian-American director Rayka Zehtabchi. In 2019, nearly a decade after his Oscar win, he said, “It was because of A R Rahman the song won the award. The artiste has won a number of National Awards and 20 Filmfare Awards. Ian Tapp, Richard Pryke and Resul Pookutty were the joint awardees for their work in Slumdog Millionaire (2008) for Best Sound Mixing. Another track from the film, ‘O Saaya’, was also nominated in the Best Original Song category.

It's a record-setting year for performers of Asian descent. In the actress race, there's room for Andrea Riseborough but not Viola Davis or Danielle ...

[Michelle Williams](https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/04/movies/michelle-williams-fabelmans.html) play Steven Spielberg’s mom in “The Fabelmans,” they were convinced she was our new supporting-actress front-runner. Then, just a few weeks later, [word broke](https://www.nytimes.com/2023/01/04/movies/michelle-williams-fabelmans.html) that instead of gunning for that easy win, Williams would be campaigned as the film’s leading actress. Tuesday added two more to the mix, as “Top Gun: Maverick” earned a solid six nominations (including an adapted screenplay nod that produced an audible reaction in the room where the nominations were read) and James Cameron’s “Avatar: The Way of Water” took four. But [“Blonde” star Ana de Armas](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/28/movies/blonde-review-marilyn-monroe.html) did make it into the best actress lineup, and another Netflix movie surged into the best-picture race at just the right time … (The 1930 adaptation of Remarque’s novel won best picture at the third Academy Awards, don’t forget.) The German-language adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque’s classic World War I novel was a favorite of many Oscar voters I spoke to, and could even be a formidable threat to nomination leader “Everything Everywhere All At Once,” since it offers a more traditional awards pick than that multiverse-jumping mind-bender. Meanwhile, “The Fabelmans” auteur Steven Spielberg earned his ninth best-director nomination, tying Martin Scorsese for the second most nominations in that category, behind William Wyler’s 13. Deadwyler’s deeply felt performance as the mother of Emmett Till had suffered a few notable snubs this season from the Independent Spirit Awards and Golden Globes, but Davis had cruised through the season so far, earning nominations from the Globes, Screen Actors Guild, Critics Choice Awards and BAFTA. That strategy earned the 41-year-old British actress her first nomination, and proved that when it comes to Oscar season, it ain’t over till it’s over. Though the best actress race often favors ingénues, male up-and-comers aren’t always regarded so warmly: The best actor category is typically stacked with veterans over 40, and the same famous names are nominated an awful lot. Though two of the last three best-picture winners were directed by Asian filmmakers, the academy has fallen short when it comes to nominating performers of Asian descent: Films like “Parasite” and “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon” failed to earn even a single nomination for their acclaimed actors. A single awards campaign can involve a monthslong gantlet of interviews, red carpets, screening Q&As and voter handshakes, and not every contender can charge all those appearances to a corporate credit card.

The 95th Academy Awards will be handed out on March 12, a date so far away that it feels like a surprise and a snub in and of itself.

Meanwhile here are the “snubs” and surprises for the 95th Academy Awards, which will be handed out on March 12, a date so far away that it feels like a surprise and a snub in and of itself. Andrew Dominik’s nightmarish look at the tragic life of Marilyn Monroe was miserable, ghoulish and tasteless ... Is that reason to jump up and down on the couch? Amy Adams moderated a virtual screening not long after a similar event moderated by Kate Winslet, who gushed: “You should be up for everything. Pete “Maverick” Mitchell in a sequel to an action movie made 36 years ago. In this reality though, the morning brought its fair share of surprises, pleasant and otherwise.

The 73-year-old has received widespread critical acclaim for his deeply moving performance as a terminally-ill gentleman in Living, who dedicated his life to simply living by the rules and doing what was expected of him, before embracing the true beauty of life in his final months. Austin Butler's powerhouse performance as Elvis Presley in Baz Luhrmann's bombastically-entertaining biopic Elvis has had a lasting impact on the actor, who has struggled to shake off the voice and mannerisms of the King, years after wrapping the movie. The five nominees announced have never been given an Oscar, and indeed, none of them have even received a nomination before from the Academy, until now.

War movies are big, first-time acting nominees had a great morning, and inclusion at the Oscars is still an uphill battle. All this, plus the big showing ...

Plus, of course, the comeback stories of Ke Huy Quan ( [Everything Everywhere All at Once](https://www.npr.org/2022/03/25/1088531021/everything-everywhere-all-at-once-movie-review)) and Brendan Fraser ( [The Whale](https://www.npr.org/2022/11/29/1139789545/the-whale-is-more-prosthetic-than-aesthetic)). [Nope](https://www.npr.org/2022/07/21/1112634101/jordan-peele-subverts-expectations-again-with-nope) was shut out of the nominations entirely. But as has been the case in many, many years of Oscar nominations, no women were nominated this year, despite strong films from established directors including Gina Prince-Bythewood ( [The Woman King](https://www.npr.org/2022/09/16/1123434249/woman-king-review-viola-davis)) and Sarah Polley ( [Women Talking, ](https://www.npr.org/2023/01/20/1149753059/women-talking-review-sarah-polley)which was nominated for best picture).

While Angela Bassett became the first actor nominated for a Marvel movie (for [Black Panther: Wakanda Forever](https://www.npr.org/2022/11/11/1135781454/wakanda-forever-review-black-panther-chadwick-boseman)) and the hugely versatile Brian Tyree Henry was nominated for Causeway, the #OscarsSoWhite discussions of recent years are far from over. It was also a difficult year for some of the most well-regarded Black artists in Hollywood. But it wasn't on most awards radar, and then it was, [as theories swirled about what connections might be behind the swell of support](https://www.vulture.com/2023/01/andrea-riseborough-to-leslie-oscar-buzz-timeline.html). [All Quiet on the Western Front](https://www.npr.org/2022/10/28/1132405481/movie-review-all-quiet-on-the-western-front), which is available on Netflix, is not breaking a lot of new ground as a war film for people who have seen the bloodiest sequences in Saving Private Ryan and the trench warfare of 1917. First-time nominees include new faces like Austin Butler ( Four acting nominations — for lead actress Michelle Yeoh, supporting actresses Stephanie Hsu and Jamie Lee Curtis, and supporting actor Ke Huy Quan — plus best picture, best directing, best original screenplay, best costumes and music and visual effects and editing, all add up to a huge haul for a movie that isn't quite like anything anybody has ever seen before. There were also some omissions that pained fans of individual artists as well as advocates for greater inclusivity in the Oscars. Nevertheless, it received nine nominations, including best picture, best international feature, and best adapted screenplay.

The Oscar nominations 2023 are in as Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams announced the nominations for the 95th Academy Awards this morning.

Actress Michelle Yeoh stands between Stephanie Hsu and Ke Huy Quan as they hold her back. “Everything Everywhere All at Once” received eleven Oscar nominations, ...

(I’m unfortunately sure that “ [Don’t Worry Darling](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-front-row/dont-worry-darling-is-so-much-more-than-hollywood-gossip-fodder),” one of the year’s best star-centric Hollywood films, will be rejected by the Academy, as it was by critics.) [Women Talking](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-front-row/women-talking-reviewed-a-sublime-script-a-merely-very-good-movie)” received a pair of nominations, for Best Picture and for its screenplay, and that the daring and subtle “ [Marcel the Shell with Shoes On](https://www.newyorker.com/goings-on-about-town/movies/marcel-the-shell-with-shoes-on),” a remarkable blend of stop-motion and live action, turns up as a nominee in the Animated Feature category. The overlap points to the very meaning of directing: the comprehensive influence on the work of everyone making a major contribution to the film at hand, from casting and the style of acting to the tone of lighting and the costumes and décor—and, of course, the script, whether or not the director is credited. Charlie Chaplin famously said that comedy is life in long shot and tragedy is life in closeup, and I’ve long thought that directors’ sense of distance is as important as that of timing. (The nostalgia that its success represents, above all, is for the Coen brothers’ early films—it catches something of their tone without their style, wit, or cinematic self-awareness.) The other international film to get a Best Picture nomination, “ [Triangle of Sadness](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-front-row/triangle-of-sadness-reviewed-were-on-a-yacht-and-were-puking),” is mainly in English, and its emotional world is painfully simplistic. Inasmuch as the Oscars are, eminently, aspirational—an image of what the industry prizes about itself and where it wants to be heading over all—what the list of nominees promises for slates of production in years ahead is fearsome. I’m keeping my list in this fantasyland in order to highlight the gap between what’s usually on the Academy’s radar and what’s going on in the world of movies at large. I’m against the individual branches making nominations in their categories; cinematographers, editors, actors have the knowledge and the understanding of their fields, but this practice results in a sort of guild protectionism that perpetuates norms instead of rewarding experiences. Jordan Peele is the Rodney Dangerfield of Hollywood—he gets no respect at all, at least, none since he won Best Original Screenplay for “ [Get Out](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/richard-brody/get-out-jordan-peeles-radical-cinematic-vision-of-the-world-through-black-eyes).” His, and his movies’, neglect is appalling and disturbing. [Nope](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-front-row/nope-is-one-of-the-great-movies-about-moviemaking)”—and it did not get nominated for anything. Bringing together Michelle Yeoh and Ke Huy Quan, great actors whose talents have been underutilized because of the dearth of substantial roles for Asian performers, along with [Jamie Lee Curtis](https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-new-yorker-interview/jamie-lee-curtis-has-never-worked-hard-a-day-in-her-life) (who has endured the ageism that most actresses confront) and the near-newcomer (to movies) Stephanie Hsu, deserves an Oscar in itself. So does the bushel of nominations for “

Here are snubs and surprises in the 2023 Oscar nominations, with a special focus on music categories.

Both halves of this popular Hollywood couple were in play for nominations for their work on the charming “small” film, A Man Called Otto. Two Black actresses were thought to have a good shot at nominations for best actress – Davis for The Woman King (a best picture nominee) and Danielle Deadwyler for Till. The snubs extended to the music categories, where Terence Blanchard’s shortlisted score for The Woman King failed to be nominated, as did “Stand Up,” Dernst “D’Mile” Emile II and Three of the songs that were shortlisted for best original song had more than four songwriters. She is seen as the front-runner to win in the category, 29 years after she was first nominated for playing Tina Turner in What’s Love Got to Do With It. [Billboard Hot 100](https://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100) were nominated for best original song (Rihanna and Lady Gaga), but four other chart-toppers were shortlisted but failed to make the final five. Ryan Lott is this year’s only double nominee for best original song and best original score. He is up for best song for co-writing “This Is a Life” with David Byrne and Three years ago, the Icelandic composer won best original score for Joker. Like Desplat, Franglen was shortlisted in both music categories for his work on Avatar: The Way of Water. He won best original score 35 years ago for The Last Emperor, on which he collaborated with Ryuichi Sakamoto and Cong Su. She has had far better luck at the Grammys, where she has amassed six song of the year nominations, which puts her in a tie with Paul McCartney and Lionel Richie for the most nods ever in that category.

On the morning of Oscar nominations, Variety spoke to this year's contenders about getting recognized by the Academy.

She’s like, “Just believe it.” So I was like, “OK.” I have to go to work today. But I was shocked that it was the first nomination, so that made me nervous. Well, I was nervous because it was the first nomination. I didn’t have to go to work the next day. I tried to zen out, but I woke up at 3:45.

The best supporting actress nominations have been revealed for this year's Oscars: Hong Chau, Angella Bassett, Kerry Condon, Jamie Lee Curtis...

Hong Chau is also selected by the Academy for her role supporting Brendan Fraser in The Whale from Darren Aronofsky, with her sensitive performance well received by the voters. The telecast also will stream on Also recognised is Jamie Lee Curtis, remarkably nominated for the first time in her 46 year career, for her performance in Everything Everywhere All At Once as Deirdre Beaubeirdre, an IRS inspector, as well as variants of Deirdre in alternate universes.
