Oscar Awards 2023, the nominations. Masters and outsiders, Alice Rohrwacher- Corriere.it is also in the running

Sara Everything Everywhere All at Oncepsychedelic epic from a laundry to the multiverse of heroine Michelle Yeoh, the work of directors Kwan and Scheinert, now known as the Daniels, the film to beat in the 95th Academy Awards. Eleven nominations won, including the heaviest: best film, director, actors, Michelle Yeoh and the supporting characters Ke Huy Quan (the little boy from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom) and daughter Stephanie Hsu, as well as Jamie Lee Curtis. Nine nominations for The spirits of the island
by Martin McDonagh (arrived from Venice 79 where Colin Farrell, favorite for the statuette, was awarded) and, one of the few surprises, the German Nothing new on the western front by Edward Berger, branded Netflix. Good result for Elvis by Baz Luhrmann, for which — in addition to the protagonist Austin Butler — also our Aldo Signoretti (make up) is in the competition. Alice Rohrwacher with the short film The pupils snatches a nomination that weighs heavily, given that the five directors are all male, after the victories of Chloe Zhao and Jane Campion in 2012 and 2022. I’m Steven Spielberg with the autobiographical The FabelmansMartin McDonagh, Todd Field for Tar And Ruben Ostlundalready Palme d’Or at Cannes 75 with The triangle of sadness. But among the ten best filmsalongside blockbusters Avatars 2 And Top Gun: Maverick there is Women Talking by Canadian Sarah Polley.

Few, but significant, surprises among the actors. Together with the very favorite Cate Blanchett (in her eighth nomination for Tar), compete as hypothesized, in addition to Yeoh, Michelle Williams, restless mother for Spielberg and Ana de Armas (Blonde) and, unexpectedly, the outsider Andrea Riseborough for To Leslie by newcomer Michael Morris. Ignored Margot Robbie’s performance in Babylonthe title most snubbed by the members of the Academy, as well as that of Brad Pitt among the non-protagonists, where Bryan Three Henry wins for Causeways, produced by and starring Jennifer Lawrence. Unexpected (but deserved) the inclusion of Paul Mescal for Charlotte Wells’ debut feature Aftersun
among the male interpreters where he is also in the company of Brandan Fraser (The Whale) and Bill Nighy (Living
). Among the nominations of the 23 categories announced yesterday in Beverly Hills by Riz Ahmed and Allison Williams, little suspense also for animation: Guillermo Del Toro is aiming for an encore with his Pinocchio after the Golden Globe. Also awaiting the presence in the five of the documentaries of the Golden Lion 2022, All the beauty and the pain by Laura Poitras. For the best song they run Rihanna (Wakanda forever) and Lady Gaga (Mavericks), alongside another film revelation of this year, the Indian RRR which, however, does not run among international films. In addition to Germany, Argentina beats it (Argentina 1985), Belgium (Close), Poland (Eo) and Ireland (The Quiet girl). Appointment at March 12thwith Jimmy Kimmel returning to do the honors at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
