Winner 
96th Academy Awards
The 2023 file: winners first, ballot trails on demand, and the films that shaped the ceremony.
96th Academy Awards — March 10, 2024
Oppenheimer won Best Picture, Christopher Nolan won Director, Cillian Murphy won Actor, and Emma Stone won Actress. The ceremony functioned almost as a coronation for Nolan after years of being seen as “Oscar-adjacent” rather than fully embraced. More broadly, it represented a rare moment when box-office force, critical esteem, awards momentum, and industrial myth all lined up behind the same movie.
