The Academy Awards has revealed its shortlists in a few significant categories in advance of the 95th Academy Awards on March 12. The eleven categories are Documentary Feature, Documentary Short, International Feature, Live Action Short, Animated Short, Makeup and Hairstyling, Music Score, Original Song, Sound, and Visual Effects. The lists display the most likely nominees in each category. The full list of nominees will be released on January 24, but these shortlists provide a sense of the qualities the Academy is looking for in candidates for significant awards.

Before this year’s awards, one thing is clear: people love Netflix’s All Quiet on the Western Front. With five nominations in every category, it was eligible for, the German movie shares the record for most nominations with the audience favorite Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. It is most notable that it is included on the shortlist for International Features, going up against notable movies like South Korea’s Decision to Leave, directed by Park Chan-wook, Alejandro G. Iárritu’s Bardo, Mexico’s False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths, and buzzy Belgian picture Close. Despite the crowded field, Edward Berger’s rendition of the timeless story has a great chance to stand out at this year’s festival. It might even receive some recognition among the top categories.
