It seems clear that “Oppenheimer” is going to win big at the Oscars on Sunday.
But what does winning “big” mean at the Oscars these days?
Christopher Nolan’s epic is currently the favorite (in virtually all cases, the prohibitive favorite) in eight categories, if you go by the prediction chart at Gold Derby. It has already won one of the top film awards at nine different guild or professional association awards shows, covering producing, directing, acting, film editing, cinematography, music, art direction, sound editing and sound mixing.
But if it translate those wins into eight Academy Awards, that total will be the most since 2008’s “Slumdog Millionaire,” which also won eight.
