Deadline’s Contenders Film: The Nominees Spotlights Cross-Section Of Movies In The Oscar Picture


Contenders Film: The Nominees, Deadline's annual awards-season showcase, features eight of this year's Oscar-nominated films.

Joining us today for a Q&A conversation are director Alexander Payne, producer Mark Johnson and Original Screenplay-nominated writer-producer David Hemingson, who based the East Coast boarding school story on his own life experience and the character of his beloved uncle. Killers of the Flower Moon from Apple Original Films has 10 Oscar nominations under its belt including Best Picture, and nods for director Martin Scorsese and Lily Gladstone, who carries the true story of Mollie Burkhart, an oil-rich Osage woman preyed upon by her husband (Leonardo DiCaprio). With Documentary Short nominee N ă i Nai & Wài Pó, filmmaker Sean Wang showers love on his grandmothers Ye Yan Fuei and Zhang Li Hua, who also happen to be the best of friends and a “supergrandma” team.
