Spanish-language musical Emilia Pérez topped the list of movies nominated for this year’s Academy Awards, followed by The Brutalist and Wicked.
Emilia Pérez, the story of a Mexican drug lord who transitions to a woman and starts a new life, earned 13 nominations. The Brutalist, about a Holocaust survivor chasing the American dream, and The Wizard of Oz prequel Wicked picked up 10 nods each.
All three films will compete for the coveted Best Picture trophy at the Oscars ceremony in Hollywood on 2 March.
