Stars from across the filmmaking world are gathering this weekend in the United States for the 95th annual Academy Awards ceremony, one of the most prestigious events in the cinema world.
But the high point will likely come at the end of Sunday evening, when this year’s best picture is crowned. Ten nominees are looking to walk away with the coveted Oscar for top film — and the field of contenders this year is a varied bunch, ranging from quiet period dramas to punchy summer blockbusters and quirky indie favourites.
However, eight years since the Oscars-So-White hashtag brought the issue of diversity to the fore and with a persistent decline in ratings – there is plenty of ground still to be made up.
