Specifically, she has ** nominations, the same as Jack Nicholson, making her the second most nominated actress to date, only behind Meryl Streep, who with ** continues to clearly lead the ranking.

The Oscars, have they lost relevance?

The most anticipated night for the world film industry seems unable to reach American homes as it once did. After the poor ratings of the 2021 ceremony, the incidents that occurred at the 2022 event, and the rebound experienced in 2023, all eyes were again on the **** edition. And while it managed to become the most-watched broadcast in the United States during prime time on March 10, 2024, at the same time it again recorded an increase in the number of viewers compared to the previous year, it was far from enough to reach pre-pandemic figures.

The global film industry in numbers

After a dark 2020 for the film market, 2021 showed the first signs of recovery, which were confirmed in 2022 and 2023. In the European Union, for example, nearly *** million more cinema tickets were sold than in the previous year, reaching almost *** million. This positive trend in the number of viewers has been maintained in other parts of the world, resulting in a global box office revenue increase of nearly ** billion U.S. dollars. However, much of this improvement is due to the release of films such as Super Mario Bros: The Movie, Oppenheimer, and what would become the big hit of 2023: Barbie.
