Anora

Best Picture nominees 2025 #3 I simply don’t see Anora winning best picture on a preferential ballot but missing out on every other single category. Maybe on paper it’s plausible, but I don’t think it’s likely. If that makes sense I guess for that to happen Anora and Conclave would have to be soooo extremely close in the best picture race to the point that Anora misses out on every single award (actress goes to Moore, editing to Conclave, director to Corbet, S Actor to Culkin, O screenplay to A Real Pain, but then Anora manages to squeeze a win in best picture, because it has more #6, #7, #8 etc than Conclave. Again, it’s not impossible, but I don’t think it’s likely... If Anora loses all the other categories.. it’s an indication it’s not as widely well liked and therefore I assume it would have less #1 than expected.. which normally equals losing out on best picture..
