LOS ANGELES — Sean Baker’s drama Anora has been nominated for “Best Film of the Year” at the upcoming Academy Awards ceremony.

The film has also received nominations for “Best Director,” “Best Actress,” “Best Actor in a Supporting Role,” and “Best Original Screenplay.”

Anora was previously awarded the Palme d’Or at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. The movie also garnered nominations for “Best Editing,” with standout performances by Mikey Madison (Best Actress) and Yuriy Borisov (Best Supporting Actor).
