‘The Power of the Dog’ nominated for 12 Academy Awards

After much speculation, the full list of nominees for this year’s Oscars is now in — and there’s one movie that’s leading the pack. While a number of films have received multiple nominations for 2022’s ceremony, the 94th Academy Awards, western drama The Power of the Dog is leaving the rest in the dust as Oscar voters have presented it with a total of 12 nominations across 11 different categories.

Those dozen nominations include almost all of the major prizes, excluding Best Actress, but that’s only because the film arguably doesn’t have one. Power of the Dog is up for Best Picture, though it faces stiff competition from such other acclaimed films as Belfast, Nightmare Alley, and West Side Story. What’s more, Jane Campion is nominated for Best Director alongside the likes of Licorice Pizza’s Paul Thomas Anderson and Drive My Car‘s Ryusuke Hamaguchi.
