Who makes the Oscar race in 2016?
The tension rises – the film looks banned to Hollywood. There will be on Sunday evening, the Oscars. A favorite dominated the headlines. However, on the Oscarliste are also other…

Best Film
On a staggering twelve nominations is “The Revenant”. The Film tells the impressive story of a trapper in the icy Naturwüsten North America and is the big favorite at this year’s Oscars. It would be a good choice in the Königskategorie “Best Film”, although he has a few strong competitors.

Best Original Story
In this category, it could be at the Journalistendrama “Spotlight” effect. The Film is about a handful of editors of the “Boston Globe” is also in the main category nominated, would have to be there but against “The Revenant” prevail. A way out for the Oscar Academy could be this price for a screenplay.
-

Best Director
This category is not to be equated with the Supreme category of “Best Film”. Sometimes it is distributed: The best movie of comes then not from the best Director. That’s one of the quirks of the Oscars. But if “The Revenant”Director Alejandro González Iñárritu as best Director award, it would be no Surprise. Earned if he had it.
-

Best Actress
Here, it is impossible for “The Revenant” will be excellent. Because to play there (almost) no women. But with Cate Blanchett (“Carol”), Charlotte Rampling (“45 Years”) and the three other candidates are five strong Ladies to choose from. Blanchett is our favourite, though, Rampling has an outside chance.
-

Male Actor
In this category it should this time on Leonardo DiCaprio result. There is hardly another Oscar topic in the last weeks, so much has been written. DiCaprio in “The Revenant” the tortured, revenge taking Trapper plays, would have the trophy earned. In spite of all the stories, especially in the tabloid press about him to be told: He is a really good actor.
-

Best Camera
Also in this category is “The Revenant”, of course, nominated. The images that cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki on the canvas, are also stunning. He could have an Oscar worthy. But his colleague, Ed Lachman, for “Carol” (our photo) beautifully lit Tableaus designed.
-

Original Music
These two gentlemen could on a Sunday may also enjoy. The Older of the legendary Italian film composer Ennio Morriccone. He is nominated for the Soundtrack for the Western “The Hateful 8” by Director Quention Tarantino has composed. Our Music-Add To Favorite!
-

Best Animated Film
In this category is the race open. “Everything is upside down” is the most commercially successful Film among the nominees. Our suggestion: the magic of movie “memories of Marnie” from the Japanese Studio Ghibli. Directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, the film tells the story of a 12-year-old asthma sufferers girl. In Germany the Film is on 11. March in “the universe” on DVD.
-

Best Documentary
As the best documentary film could in this year of the music documentary “Amy” award. The Film is about the short and tragic career of the singer Amy Winehouse would have been a Oscar worthy. He needs to be but tough competition, such as the political documentary “The Look of Silence,” an Episode from the history of Indonesia – a production, for the Denmark enters the race.
-

Best Foreign Language Film
May this young man on Sunday in Los Angeles the Oscar in the altitude hold. With the Golden Globe, he made the already very elegant. It is the Hungarian Director László Nemes, the Globe recently for his Auschwitz Drama, “Saul fia” got. An outside chance in this category has also the German-French-Turkish Co-production “Mustang”.

Would the Oscars according to the criterion awarded, who in the run-up most often in the reporting that has been mentioned, there should be a clear winner: Leonardo DiCaprio. There is hardly any other actor has been so much speculation, especially because the Americans already four times was nominated in the past, but so far no trophy to take home. Now, finally, he was once tuned, it was said again and again.
Twelve nominations for “The Revenant”
So pushed the reporting of the category “Best actor” in the foreground, repressed even the fact that the movie is “The Revenant,” in which DiCaprio is seen, on twelve nominations – a extraordinary result. The had previously been not many films in Oscar history to be made. But even this overwhelming favorites of the Mexican Director Alejandro González Iñárritu could be at the Sunday evening collapse. Because that has already been there: A big favorite from outsiders dethroned.

Actor, this year in the categories “Best performer” and “Best supporting actor” nominated
If Iñárritu on Sunday, a further Oscar for the best Film or even best Director would receive, then that would be an even bigger Surprise as a new “defeat” of DiCaprio. Because the Mexicans had also in the past year triumphs, his Film “Birdman” got four statuettes, including the two most important. An Oscar Triumph of a Director in two consecutive years – this would be a Sensation.
The other Filmnationen the world are in the shade
This remains So in the run-up to this 88. Awarding of the Oscars is all just speculation. Already often have the members of the Oscar Academy the movie world by surprise.
The Oscar is considered by many film buffs and Kinointeressierten in all over the world as the most important Film prize perceived. But one should not forget: Here are mainly English speaking film makers and works to choose from. For the vast majority of other Kinonationen around the globe to stay at the Oscar, only crumbs left over: In the category “Best Nichtenglischsprachiger movie” gathers the Rest of the film world.

Crumbs for the Rest of the world: The category of “Best Nichtenglischsprachiger Film”. It is nominated in 2016, also “Mustang” (Turkey/France/Germany) by Deniz Gamze Ergüven.
So is the Oscar is for sure the most important film Award for the USA (and some other English-speaking countries), but not for the Rest of the world – at least not from filmkünstlerischer point of view.
Of course, the Oscarabend one of the largest commercial TV-events of the world of culture. The Oscar is a lot of money to be implemented. And there is probably no other Red carpet, so to be in the spotlight as the front of the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, the film festival in Cannes except. The noise of the carpet so it will again be great in the night of the Oscars.
Luckily this year, not only for the filthy lucre. There are some really good movies nominated. That was in the past is not always the case. And good actors – such as Leonardo DiCaprio.
