Movie magic! The Academy Awards are known for shining a spotlight on the biggest films of the year — and the 2022 Oscars Best Picture nominees are no exception.

Amid the drama, it was (almost) easy to forget the reason why A-listers had assembled at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles - to honour the finest movies from around the world.
