In the running for Best Picture at the Oscars this year are some standout films. From box office hits like "Barbie" and "Oppenheimer" to foreign language gems like "Anatomy of a Fall," there's a diverse range of movies vying for the top spot.
"Barbie" starring Margot Robbie and directed by Greta Gerwig, was initially underestimated but proved its worth with a whopping $1.5 billion earnings. Despite its commercial success, it missed out on Best Actress and Best Director nominations. On the other hand, "Oppenheimer," directed by Christopher Nolan, was a blockbuster success, grossing nearly a billion dollars. This R-rated epic about the atom bomb is a strong contender for the Best Picture award.

Foreign language films like "Anatomy of a Fall" and "The Zone of Interest" add diversity to the mix. "Anatomy of a Fall" is a French-language hit that intricately weaves a courtroom drama with a mysterious narrative. Meanwhile, "The Zone of Interest" offers a chilling perspective on Nazi Germany's atrocities.
Among the contenders is also "American Fiction," a directorial debut by Cord Jefferson, exploring themes of success and family dynamics. Alexander Payne's "The Holdovers" and Martin Scorsese's "Killers of the Flower Moon" are also in the race, offering quintessential American stories with great performances.
