—this article does not list the short film about the 1955 Le Mans racing disaster. Does that mean it cannot get a nomination?
Best Animated Short cheat sheet: All 10 competitors with full details to help you predict 2020 Oscars

More categories ranked in the New Year…
In the old days, it would have been The Two Popes vs. Little Women, but we may yet see that happen this year
You guys need to know that critics’ top 10 list mentions are an extremely strong predictor for Best Picture nominations (no surprise, right?). As of now Uncut Gems has 95 mentions (5th best) and 15 best-film-of-year nods (4th best), Knives Out has 75 and 6, and Jojo Rabbit has just 35 and 1.
For Best Director, 2 #5’s for Karger but no #4
fixed thx
—no “Le Mans 1955.”
