Oscar Nominations 2019: The Favourite, Roma lead; complete list

Alfonso Cuaron's Netflix film Roma earned nominations in the Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress In A Leading Role categories. Diversity is in full bloom in the Oscar nomination list this year

Mexican filmmaker Alfonso Cuaron's Roma and Yorgos Lanthimos's period drama The Favourite are in a tie with 10 nominations each for the 91st Academy Awards, where an India-set drama on menstruation, apart from three films backed by Reliance Entertainment, will contend for Oscars — lending a touch of diversity to the line-up.

Kumail Nanjiani and Tracee Ellis Ross announced the nominations for the Oscars on Tuesday, on behalf of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Even though India's official entry for the Oscars, Rima Das' Assamese film Village Rockstars failed to make it to the initial shortlist, Period. End Of Sentence, an India-set film on the taboos around menstruation and featuring the real Pad Man Arunachalam Muruganathan has made it to the top five nominees of the Documentary Short Subject category for the awards show, which will be held on February 24.

Cuaron's Netflix film Roma earned nominations in the Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress In A Leading Role categories. Diversity is in full bloom in the Oscar nomination list this year. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper's A Star Is Born and Christian Bale-starrer Vice have eight nominations each, followed by seven nominations for Black Panther, which has become the first superhero film ever to make it to the Best Picture category at the Oscars.

BlacKkKlansman, a story about an African-American police officer, has scored six nominations, followed by five nominations for Bohemian Rhapsody and Green Book, and a tie for First Man and Mary Poppins Returns with four mentions each.
