L’Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences ha annunciato ieri, martedì 9 febbraio, le shortlist relative a nove categorie dei titoli in corsa per la 93a edizione degli Academy Awards®: documentario, cortometraggio documentario, lungometraggio internazionale, trucco e acconciatura, musica (colonna sonora originale/canzone originale), cortometraggi animati, cortometraggi live action ed effetti visivi. Riguardo i nostri colori, Notturno di Gianfranco Rosi non lo si rinviene nella lista dei titoli in lingua internazionale, bensì in quella dei documentari, mentre The Life Ahead (La vita davanti a sé), diretto da Edoardo Ponti ed interpretato da Sophia Loren, è presente per la migliore colonna sonora e la migliore canzone originale, Io sì , cantata da Laura Pausini. Pinocchio di Matteo Garrone compete nella categoria make up e acconciatura. Le candidature saranno annunciate il 15 marzo e la cerimonia di premiazione avrà luogo il 25 aprile.
