Hollywood's biggest night is almost here. But which actors and films will be hoisting Oscars this year?
“The Brutalist,” “Conclave” and “Anora” are among the films that could have big nights, but there has not been a consensus among critics and several races are too close to call.
In this week's episode, longtime critic and host Bruce Miller makes his picks in the biggest categories and co-host Terry Lipshetz goes through the list of picks from the Hollywood Reporter to see how the two compare.
The 97th Academy Awards will air live on Sunday, March 2, starting at 7 p.m. ET. It will air on ABC and Hulu. The Oscars Red Carpet Show will air at 6:30 p.m. ET. Conan O'Brien is hosting.
