There is a huge buzz surrounding the Academy nominations. On Tuesday evening (early morning U.S. Pacific Time) they came live on Twitter with the announcement of the Oscars 2022 Nominations Full List. There was a massive hype after the announcement on social media platforms, with people discussing the films and comparing their good and bad quantities.
Indians faced a huge disappointment when they learned about the Suriya-starrer ‘Jai Bhim’, which was a hot favourite for a nomination that did not make the cut of the Oscars 2022 Nominations Full List. India’s neighbouring country Bhutan created history when its official entry, “Lunana: A Yak in the Classroom”, found its way into the Best International Feature Film nominations. Also in the international category, Riyosuke Hamaguchi’s “Drive My Car”, which has been gathering about every major award announced that it has got the nods for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best International Feature Film. The Japanese film is based on the globally celebrated writer Haruki Murakami’s short story.
Kenneth Branagh, whose ‘Belfast’ is a frontrunner, had a jolly good reason to pour himself a Jameson, having ramped up his career record by reaching the pinnacle of seven nominations in as many categories in his lifetime. For diversity watchers, the big news was the presence of two Black actors in the nominations for Best Actor: Will Smith for “King Richard” and Denzel Washington, the second Black man to get an Oscar in the history of the Awards, for “The Tragedy of Macbeth”.
Jane Campion’s feminine take on the Wild West, ‘The Power of the Dog’, is in the running for all major awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Lead Actor (Benedict Cumberbatch), two nods for Best Supporting Actor (Jesse Plemons and Kodi Smit-McPhee) and Best Supporting Actress (Kirsten Dunst), among others have also been in the Oscars 2022 Nominations Full List.
