Out Takes Guide to the 2024 Oscars

TV & Film

It’s no secret we love the international film award season so we made the obvious choice to dedicate this entire program to THE ultimate event, the 96^th Academy Awards. It’s been another interesting take on the ‘best’ in cinema over the past 12 months and recognising what that means in the film industry but as always we have our favourites and love to take the time to dissect and discuss who will win, who we wanted to win and who was snubbed (we’re looking at you ‘All Of Us Strangers’).

We also welcomed back our international correspondent Dion Blackler all the way from London to help us go through this year’s Oscar nominations and provide some great analysis to our chat. As always, we had a great time taking a deep dive in to the nominees and while we acknowledge the frontrunner in the race (hello ‘Oppenheimer’), we also made some big swings at a few categories that we hope could have a surprise or two for us all when the winners are announced Monday March 11 from 11am AEDT. Happy Oscars!
