It is finally the biggest night in the world of cinema — The Oscars and the epitome of all recognition — the most acclaimed one that we are all looking forward to being announced is the award for Best Picture

This year's most recognized tales are that of a race that has survived the shackles of time, a child's fantasy surrounding one of the world's most prominent dictators, a gangster's epic saga of loyalty and blood, a depressed comedian's trials and tribulations, a realistic imagery of a marriage falling apart but a family staying together, the tales of four sisters braving societal storms, a Japanese family's battle for survival, two brothers' war dilemma, and an alternate universe portrayal of a stuntman vs the Manson cult.

The 92nd Academy Award nominations for Best Picture were 'Ford v Ferrari' (Disney/Fox), 'The Irishman' (Netflix), 'Jojo Rabbit' (Fox Searchlight), 'Joker' (Warner Bros.), 'Little Women' (Sony), 'Marriage Story' (Netflix), '1917' (Universal), 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' (Sony) and 'Parasite' (Neon).

Taking the spotlight amid its equally acclaimed, the 2020 Oscar for Best Picture went to 'Parasite' and what a deserving and historic win for the Oscars this was, as director Bong Joon-ho's film also won the International Feature at the 2020 Oscars. The award was presented by Jane Fonda.
