My reviews of three Oscar-nominated films that I can recommend:

* Small Things Like These
* The Apprentice
* Anora

Plus two films that were so bad I couldn’t get through them.

I’ll take a quick look at a film I never heard of that has won a ton of accolades and awards. (I’ll review that one next month.) And I’ll finish up with a list of Oscar-nominated shorts that you might want to watch prior to the awards ceremony on March 2.
