Glastonbury Full Lineup Revealed: Paul McCartney, Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish to Headline

This year’s Academy Awards present the chance for a large number of landmark wins, from the first Sundance movie to win Best Picture to the youngest songwriting winner ever to the longest gap between wins by a composer.We’ll start our list with “CODA,” which could provide plenty of landmarks all by itself.If “CODA” wins Best Picture, it would become the first film to do so after premiering at the Sundance Film Festival. It would also be the first winner whose main cast is predominantly deaf.It would become the second film to win Best Picture without a Directors Guild nomination for its director, after “Driving Miss Daisy.”It would also become the first to ever win without Oscar nominations for either directing or film editing.And it would become the first movie with fewer than four total nominations to win Best Picture since “Grand Hotel” won with only a single nomination in 1932.If either Apple’s “CODA” or Netflix’s “The Power of the Dog” wins Best Picture, it will become the first film released by a streaming company to take that award.If Jane Campion wins the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar for “The Power of the Dog,” she’ll become the first woman to win in both of the Oscar writing categories.

As Deadline broke yesterday, Beyonce has now been officially confirmed to sing in one of the slots of Best Original Song contenders on the 94th Oscars.

That aspect however was not in the Academy’s long awaited announcement of plans for the Best Song presentations. As my colleague Mike Fleming noted the formal announcement would come after voting closed, and indeed it did exactly at 5pm PT which is the same moment ballots had to be in to Pricewaterhouse. The campaign is over. All that is left now is the show itself.

Jon Burlingame editorThis year’s Oscar song race may be more competitive than initially thought.
