The Oscar nominations for the films of 2019 have arrived, and once again we find ourselves with the possibility of a Picture/Director split. Five of the nine Best Picture nominees are also nominated in Best Director: “The Irishman” for Martin Scorsese, “Joker” for Todd Phillips, “1917” for Sam Mendes, “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” for Quentin Tarantino and “Parasite” for Bong Joon Ho. The presumed Picture frontrunner is “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” after winning at the Golden Globes and Critics’ Choice Awards, but Mendes won the Directing Golden Globe and tied with Bong at Critics’ Choice. While Tarantino has been hailed for his directorial flair, it’s looking less and less likely that he will win his first Oscar for directing.
