Oscars 2018

The Oscars are here, and as usual, it is full of surprises (especially if you’re Nigerian and cannot understand why your favorite movies didn’t get a nod). While there is no clear picture of who will win what, movies like The Shape of Water, Call Me by Your Name, Get Out, The Post, and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri all picked up nods. The Guillermo del Toro directed Shape of Water received the most nods with 13 across all categories.
