Who Will Take The Statue of Golden Knight Home at The 2024 Oscars?

23 December 2023: The 96th Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has revealed the finalists in ten different categories.

The meta-comedy "Barbie" by Greta Gerwig received the most mentions overall—five total—including sound and original song for each of its three submissions. "Society of the Snow" and "Killers of the Flower Moon" both demonstrated strength with four mentions each in four different categories.

Voters will take off for their preferred holiday spots to watch the films they missed during the 2023 holiday break.

This week, two columns on the Awards Circuit discuss the quantity of comedy competing for the prizes and the films that are popular at home.

Movies gaining momentum: 'Barbie' and 'Oppenheimer' are starting to separate themselves from the group, while 'Killers of the Flower Moon' and 'Poor Things' are pursuing them closely. "American Fiction," "The Holdovers," and "Maestro" are all still making waves and will try to catch up in January at several events and award shows.

The biggest gain this week is "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," which may be aiming to create history by becoming the first animated film winner in the category after making the visual effects shortlist.

Despite not making the Critics Choice Awards' list of the top 10 films, its potential prominence was sufficient to get it back into the predicted list of Best Picture nominees.

Best Picture:

“American Fiction” (MGM)

Cord Jefferson, Jermaine Johnson, Nikos Karamigios, Ben LeClair

“Barbie” (Warner Bros.)

David Heyman, Margot Robbie, Tom Ackerley, Robbie Brenner

“The Holdovers” (Focus Features)

“Killers of the Flower Moon” (Apple Original Films/Paramount Pictures)

“Maestro“ (Netflix)

“Oppenheimer” (Universal Pictures) ***

“Past Lives” (A24)

David Hinojosa, Pamela Koffler, Christine Vachon

“Poor Things” (Searchlight Pictures)

Ed Guiney, Andrew Lowe, Yorgos Lanthimos, Emma Stone

“Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” (Sony Pictures)

“The Zone of Interest” (A24)

The official candidates will be announced on January 23, and the Oscar nomination period will take place from January 11–16, 2024.

Raising a Glass to the Best: Highlights from the 2023 India Wine Awards

December 18, 2023: From a list of 460 wine and sake nominations, 219 winning wines in multiple categories were announced for the fifth edition of the India Wine Awards, which are hosted by Sonal Holland Wine Academy in collaboration with ProWine. The greatest blind-tasting competition of Indian wines, both domestic and foreign, was held on November 24 at Jio World Convention Centre. Twenty jury members evaluated each wine in the competition using a 100-point rating system to make sure the winners represented the preferences of Indian consumers.

110 wines were awarded in the Silver category, and 79 in the Gold. The wine that received the highest score among the 30 Best in Show winners was declared the best in show for that particular category. This year, sake was also added as a new category to recognise its growing popularity in the Indian market. In some categories, the jury found it difficult to choose a single winner, which occasionally resulted in a two- or three-way tie.

600 distinguished industry figures, including luminaries, leaders in hospitality, international trade organisations, and winemakers from all around the world, gathered for the Winners' Night. Among others, the evening honoured Rajeev Samant, the founder and CEO of Sula Vineyards, who is particularly notable for having laid the crucial groundwork for the development of the Indian wine sector. Sonal C. Holland herself gave him the "Indian Wine Industry Leader and Champion Award," which he well earned.

This year's event also marked the debut of a brand-new feature: IndiaWineAwards' 50 Best Places To Drink, a selection of the nation's top eateries and bars that provide outstanding drinking experiences for their patrons. Based on votes from the general public and jury members, the list was created to honour not only the best places to drink but also the hard work, skill, and friendliness of the staff who go into making these places especially memorable.

Mumbai-born Americano took first place in this category and became a fan favourite. Nine other notable venues that made it to the Top 10 Best Places to Drink came after Americano. These include Sidecar (New Delhi), Sula Tasting Room (Nashik), Copitas (Bengaluru), Masque (Mumbai), Hideaway (Goa), Comorin (Gurugram), Slink & Bardot (Mumbai), and The Bombay Canteen (Mumbai).

As the founder and chairperson of the India Wine Awards, Sonal C. Holland MW, noted, "With every passing year, we are growing bigger, better, and even bolder and that only reflects where the Indian wine industry firmly stands today." She also praised the hundreds of brands that ensure the steady growth of the Indian wine industry. The awards were a success this year.
