Oskarji 2021 – največ nominacij ima film Mank
Film Mank režiserja Davida Fincherja si je priboril 10 nominacij za Oskarja. S šestimi nominacijami pa nato sledi šest filmov: The Father, Judas and the Black Messiah, Minari, Nomadland, Sound of Metal in The Trial of the Chicago 7. Pet nominacij za Oskarja pa sta prejela dva filma Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom in Promising Young Woman.
Netflix je kot distributer prejel 35 nominacij, kar je ogromno, a ne rekordno. Rekord drži United Artists, ki je leta 1941 prejel 45 nominacij. Tudi Amazon se ni odrezal slabo, saj je prejel 12 nominacij za svoje filme.
