Last year, I’m Still Here sprung a surprise best picture nomination, thanks in no small part to the many dedicated fans in the film’s native Brazil.
This year, the country is represented by political thriller The Secret Agent, which has four nominations including best picture.
Its star Wagner Moura, well known for appearing in Netflix’s drug drama Narcos, is also up for best actor.
But we can’t help feeling he should have joined Elordi, Skarsgård, Lindo, Laxe and Kosinski in the back row, as Moura is almost blocking out poor Ashley Schlaifer, the producer of best picture nominee Train Dreams.
As Variety pointed out,, external there is one thing we’ve all clearly learned from this year’s class photo: “This may be one of the tallest groups of Oscar nominees in recent memory.”
