So since Kazir is going to compete in Oscars, I decided to compile the movies who had a chance to win Best Director and Best Actor Awards.
By the way, I voted for The Revenant because both the actor (Leonardo DiCaprio) and director (Alejandro G. Iñárritu) won the Oscars.
1.) The Revenant
"The Revenant" is a 2015 film directed by Alejandro González Iñárritu. It follows the survival journey of Hugh Glass, a frontiersman in the 1820s, who endures harsh conditions and a bear attack. Betrayed and left for dead by his expedition team, Glass embarks on a grueling quest for revenge against those who abandoned him in the unforgiving wilderness. The film is known for its stunning cinematography, intense storytelling, and Leonardo DiCaprio's Oscar-winning performance as Hugh Glass.(Chatgpt)

It revolves around Riggan Thomson, a faded actor known for portraying a superhero, as he attempts a career revival by staging a Broadway play. The film blurs reality and fantasy, exploring themes of ego, identity, and the pursuit of artistic validation.

3.) The Artist.
"The Artist" is a 2011 silent black-and-white film directed by Michel Hazanavicius. Set in Hollywood during the transition from silent films to talkies, it follows the story of George Valentin, a silent film star, and Peppy Miller, an aspiring actress.
