　　Oppenheimer, the film about the lead scientist in the American project to create a nuclear weapon, led the Academy Awards, or Oscars, with 13 nominations on Tuesday.

　　The three-hour film was expected to be a top candidate for best picture. Oppenheimer also received nominations for best director for Christopher Nolan, lead actor for Cillian Murphy and supporting actors for Emily Blunt and Robert Downey, Jr. The film also received nominations for several production categories such as film editing and sound.

　　Nolan is known as one of the top directors working in Hollywood today, but he has never won the award for director. None of his movies have won best picture. Experts say this may be his year to win both awards.

　　Nolan told the Associated Press, "... getting this kind of recognition from the academy, I don't know what to say, really. It certainly confirms our faith in what studio filmmaking can be."

　　Nine other films were nominated for best picture this year. They are Barbie, Poor Things, Killers of the Flower Moon, The Holdovers, Maestro, American Fiction, Past Lives, Anatomy of a Fall and The Zone of Interest.

　　After Oppenheimer, the films with the most nominations were Poor Things with 11 and Killers of the Flower Moon with 10.

　　Poor Things is a film about a Victorian-era woman brought back to life by a scientist and stars Emma Stone. She was nominated for best actress, along with Annette Bening in Nyad, Lily Gladstone in Killers of the Flower Moon, Sandra Huller in Anatomy of a Fall and Carey Mulligan in Maestro.

　　Barbie was the most successful movie in 2023. Greta Gerwig's film based on the famous toy brought in over $1.4 billion around the world. It received eight nominations. Gerwig, however, was not nominated for best director.

　　Barbie received nominations for best picture, best supporting actor (Ryan Gosling as Ken) and two nominations for best song.

　　The best director nominees were Nolan, Justine Triet of Anatomy of a Fall, Martin Scorsese of Killers of the Flower Moon, Yorgos Lanthimos of Poor Things and Jonathan Glazer of Zone of Interest. Scorsese was nominated in the category for the 10th time.

　　The nominees for best international film were Society of the Snow, (from Spain); The Zone of Interest, (from Great Britain); The Teachers' Lounge (from Germany); Io Capitano (of Italy); and Perfect Days (from Japan).

　　Experts say this year's group of nominees reflects a return to the traditional idea that films should be shown first in movie theaters before going to streaming services such as Netflix, Apple TV+ or Amazon Prime Video.

　　All of the top films spent at least one month in movie theaters first. Netflix was the top streaming video service with 18 nominations led by its film Maestro. That film tells the story of American composer Leonard Bernstein, and it stars actor Bradley Cooper, who also wrote and directed the movie.

　　The host of the awards broadcast on March 10 will be American late-night television presenter Jimmy Kimmel.

　　《奥本海默》，这部关于美国核武器项目首席科学家的电影，周二在奥斯卡金像奖上以13项提名领跑。

　　这部长达三小时的电影被预期为最佳影片的热门候选。《奥本海默》还获得了包括克里斯托弗·诺兰的最佳导演，杀手·墨菲的最佳男主角，以及艾米丽·布朗特和小罗伯特·唐尼的最佳配角等提名。该片还在诸如电影剪辑和音效等多个制作类别中获得提名。

　　诺兰被誉为当今好莱坞最顶尖的导演之一，但他从未赢得过最佳导演奖。他的任何一部电影都未曾赢得过最佳影片奖。专家们认为，今年可能是他赢得这两项大奖的一年。

　　诺兰告诉美联社，“……能得到学院的这种认可，我真的不知道该说些什么。这无疑证实了我们对于电影制片工作的信念。”

　　今年还有九部其他电影被提名为最佳影片。它们是《芭比》、《可怜的人》、《杀手们的花月》、《The Holdovers》、《Maestro》、《American Fiction》、《Past Lives》、《Anatomy of a Fall》和《The Zone of Interest》。

　　在《奥本海默》之后，提名最多的电影是《可怜的人》（11项提名）和《杀手们的花月》（10项提名）。
