--- title: "Oscars checklist 2022: The actual nominees (53 films!)" --- As an avid Oscars Death Racer (trying to watch all movies nominated in all categories), I put together the list of all 53 films nominated for an Oscar this year. Instead of just sorting by number of nominations, I like to group them by their “highest” nominated category, which I find a more useful way of organizing the list. In a new addition this year, I've also added streaming links for every film, if I could find them on JustWatch. I prefer to watch everything in theaters, but hopefully this helps some of the rest of you watch these great films! As of today, here's where I stand on the 53 total films: - **30 feature films already seen.** I saw 27 of these in theaters and 3 at home. - **8 feature films not seen yet.** These are mostly documentary and international films, some of which haven't been released in theaters or VOD yet. - **15 short films.** I put off watching these until a week or two before the ceremony, when they're released in theaters. (If you've never seen a series of short films in a theater, it's a great experience!) The big ceremony is on March 27, 2022 - looks like I've got plenty of time to finish the Oscars Death Race again this year! ### The big list |------|-----------------------------------------------|-----------------------------|------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------| | Sort | Film | Highest Category | Total Categories | Where to Watch | My status | |------|-----------------------------------------------|-----------------------------|------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------| | 1 | **The Power of the Dog** | Best Picture | 13 | [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/81127997) | Watched in theaters | | 2 | **Dune** | Best Picture | 10 | [VOD](https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/dune/umc.cmc.2l7qj9p33t3jww1roxi8cgiw5) | Watched in theaters | | 3 | **West Side Story** | Best Picture | 7 | TBD | Watched in theaters | | 4 | **Belfast** | Best Picture | 6 | [VOD](https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/belfast/umc.cmc.2jz7n19smc0g791llqpxa0f3h) | Watched in theaters | | 5 | **King Richard** | Best Picture | 6 | [VOD](https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/king-richard/umc.cmc.11i83ne5iq37usxzghkyicmwk) | Watched in theaters | | 6 | **Don't Look Up** | Best Picture | 4 | [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/81252357) | Watched in theaters | | 7 | **Drive My Car** | Best Picture | 4 | TBD | Watched in theaters | | 8 | **Nightmare Alley** | Best Picture | 4 | [Hulu or HBO](https://www.hulu.com/movie/nightmare-alley-dd010294-61c6-4ab5-b8d9-7326836717bc) | Watched in theaters | | 9 | **CODA** | Best Picture | 3 | [Apple TV+](https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/coda/umc.cmc.3eh9r5iz32ggdm4ccvw5igiir) | Watched in theaters | | 10 | **Licorice Pizza** | Best Picture | 3 | TBD | Watched in theaters | | 11 | **Being the Ricardos** | Best Actress | 3 | [Amazon Prime](https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/0K9XSHXPSRFLUQWVPMEN78T128/) | Watched in theaters | | 12 | **The Lost Daughter** | Best Actress | 3 | [Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/title/81478910) | Watched in theaters | | 13 | **Parallel Mothers** | Best Actress | 2 | TBD | Watched in theaters | | 14 | **The Eyes of Tammy Faye** | Best Actress | 2 | [HBO Max](https://www.hbomax.com/feature/urn:hbo:feature:GYaf79gQvPMPDwgEAAAAH) | Watched in theaters | | 15 | **Spencer** | Best Actress | 1 | [VOD](https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/spencer/umc.cmc.19xgkbrkmib700351bek5annz) | Watched in theaters | | 16 | **The Tragedy of Macbeth** | Best Actor | 3 | [Apple TV+](https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/the-tragedy-of-macbeth/umc.cmc.4wpfk1xmi22h3zyv4a10lj1tw) | Watched in theaters | | 17 | **tick, tick...
