“I heard [such-and-such movie] is good. Is it streaming yet?” These days, this is a particularly tough question to answer because so many of this year’s major Oscar contenders are now available to stream on a number of significant streamers. As a public service, I’ve taken the liberty of collecting the films with the most significant Oscar buzz and sorting them in this handy guide according to where you can stream them while Academy voters cast their ballots this weekend for final Oscar nominations.
A few ground rules: I’ve excluded all major contenders only available in theaters, which can be rented on demand. This list is for subscription streaming services only. As to what makes the cut as a major Oscar contender, I am including any film that appears on the NBP team’s Top 10 Predictions for every feature Oscar category (you can find the lists here).
So, let’s start streaming!
