How are the Oscars 2023 chances for Germany and Austria?
The anti-war film “Nothing New in the West” by director Edward Berger is Germany’s big hope for an Oscar at this year’s awards ceremony in Hollywood.
The remake of the world-famous 1929 novel by Erich Maria Remarque has been nominated in nine categories, including Best Picture. So far, no German production has managed to do this. So far, Wolfgang Peterson has been in the lead with his “Boot” (1981) and “only” six entries.
In addition, “Nothing New in the West” has also been nominated in the categories “Best International Film”, “Best Film Music” and “Best Visual Effects”.
The chances of winning the first Oscar for a German feature film since “The Lives of Others” from 2007 are pretty good, especially since the work is one of the big Oscar 2023 favorites in some categories.
Austrian among Oscars favorites 2023
In theory, Austria has a chance of winning an Oscar this year. Monika Willi is nominated for an Oscar in the category “Best Editing” with the film “Tar”.
But: “Tar” is only in last place in this category. Oscar 2023 favorites are Everything Everywhere All at Once and Top Gun: Maverick.
She doesn’t expect an Oscar herself, since other films are nominated that are far more complex in terms of editing, she stacks deep in advance.
