Who Will Win—And Who Should Win—At the 2024 Oscars
Best Picture
- Will win: Oppenheimer
- Should win: Poor Things
- Should’ve been a contender: May December
Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer is the frontrunner for the Best Picture category, but Poor Things presents a compelling choice for the top prize. May December, a challenging and provocative film, deserved a spot among the contenders.
Best Director
- Will win: Christopher Nolan for Oppenheimer
- Should win: Yorgos Lanthimos for Poor Things
- Should’ve been a contender: Greta Gerwig for Barbie
Christopher Nolan is expected to win Best Director, but Yorgos Lanthimos and Greta Gerwig also deserve recognition for their exceptional work.
