As Oscar voting unfolds, IndieWire's craft team analyzes eight categories highlighting the dynamics of winning predictions. While large-scale production values tend to sway Academy voters, the team argues for rewarding films that transcend mere spectacle. They detail the Best Cinematography race, forecasting a win for Lol Crawley's 'The Brutalist' while advocating for Ed Lachman's 'Maria' as deserving of the accolade. The team expresses that this year's voting is marked by diversity in opinions, particularly in the highly competitive technical categories.
"Cinematographer Ed Lachman reunited with his 'El Conde' director Pablo Larrain for 'Maria,' offering visually stunning work that deserves recognition over the frontrunners."
"IndieWire's craft team highlighted the split opinions on the Best Cinematography category, emphasizing the abundance of award-worthy work this year."
