Want to see the nominated films in advance? Here you will find an overview of which streaming portals “Barbie”, “Oppenheimer” and Co. can be watched.
With 13 nominations, Christopher Nolan’s autobiography “Oppenheimer” about the eponymous “father of the atomic bomb” is the absolute favorite of this year’s awards ceremony. Martin Scorsese’s “Poor Things” and “Killers of the Flower Moon” are also being treated as potential wins. They follow Nolan’s blockbuster with eleven and ten nominations.
Germany is also particularly excited about “The Teacher’s Room”. The film is nominated in the “Best International Film” category. Great hope is placed not least on Sandra Hülser, who could win the Oscar for best actress for “Anatomy of a Case”.
