It is that time of the year again: awards season. Typically, the first few months of the year are filled with a bevy of ceremonies and speeches from our favorite actors and actresses. This year the best and brightest in film and on television will be honored at the 94th Academy Awards.
This year’s big nominees include Full Circle favorites like Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Banshees of Inisherin, and Elvis. Notably, the Best Picture race features not one but two of the highest-grossing films of the year, Avatar: The Way of Water and Top Gun: Maverick. Everything Everywhere All at Once leads the pack with 11 nods this year, which makes sense given the onslaught of praise it received since its release, including Full Circle’s own James Preston Poole who calls the film “a reminder of the power of the cinema.”
