On January 12, local time, the nominations for the Producers Guild of America Awards were announced. In the most high-profile field of Best Picture, a total of ten films were nominated, including two non-American films, setting a new record in the award's 35-year history. The two overseas films themselves are popular works this awards season, namely "The Fall" from France and "Zone of Interest", which represents the UK in the Oscar competition for the best international film.

In addition, the other eight works nominated for Best Picture are "American Novel", "Barbie", "Stay in School", "Killers of the Flower Moon" and "Music Master" "Oppenheimer," "A Life in the Past" and "Poor Things" almost include all the popular films of this awards season.

The Oscars have been restructured since 2009, and the list of candidates for Best Picture has been expanded from the previous five to ten. The Producers Guild Awards followed suit, and since then, on average, almost eight of the ten films they nominate each year have been nominated for Best Picture Oscars. Of the past 20 Best Picture winners at the Producers Guild Awards, 15 have become the final Oscar winners, which can be called one of the most powerful indicators of predicting the direction of the Oscars.
However, only seven of the ten best picture candidates for the last Oscar coincided with the Producers Guild Award nomination list. "All Quiet on the Western Front", "Triangle of Tragedy" and "Women's Talk" failed to be produced. Artificial union members are selected. Coincidentally, two of these three films are overseas productions, and this year, among the ten films nominated for the Producers Guild Award, there are two more overseas productions (last year there was only one British film "" The Banshee of Inisherine"), the changes may also reflect the subtle evolution of the overall Hollywood environment.
Moreover, if you think about the popular films so far this awards season, it can almost be said that these are the ten films nominated for the Producers Guild Award. I'm afraid there are only a few films that can barely be called "relics", such as "The Color Purple" and "May 12". Can they be included in the final Oscar nomination list? It seems difficult at present.
takes another look at the Best Animated Film nominated for the Producers Guild Award. The five candidates include the popular films "Spider-Man: Across the Universe", "The Boy and the Heron", "Elemental City" and "Super Mario Bros. Movie" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Transformers." In 2023, "Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio", the best animated feature selected by the Producers Guild, finally won the Oscar for the best animated feature.
In the Best Documentary Feature section, among the seven films nominated for the Producers Guild Award, "20 Days in Mariupol," "American Symphony" and "Escape from Utopia" are all Oscar-winning best documentary features. The finalists on the list are in a leading position. In 2023, "Navalny" won the Producers Guild Award and finally won the Oscar statuette.
The final results of the 35th Producers Guild of America Awards will be announced at the awards ceremony on February 25.
