Of these films I've only seem The Post, Selma, and The Blinde Side. I'd probably put Selma first of them.

By the way, "And then you have GLORY, doing its own thing with a Best Original Song win" that should be Selma right?

Nickel Boys was so artistically done & so effectual. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. Never saw Past Lives- but will.

Past Lives was my favorite movie of 2023, and easily my favorite of this list. Gorgeous movie that deserved more accolades, but was always going to be too small for the Academy. A perfect example of the 10-nominee system's merits.

Past Lives gets my vote. It's just beautiful in so many ways.

A Serious Man by a mile, but I haven't seen Nickel Boys yet.

Several of these are true classics, to me. I adored "Nickel Boys" and "Past Lives."
