Yahoo Movies How to watch the Oscar-winning films
The Oscars has decided its winners for 2024 so there's no better time to catch up on all ten nominees for Best Picture.
Whether you're looking to recreate the Barbenheimer experience, or see why Emma Stone and Lily Gladstone were fighting it out for Best Actress in a Leading Role for their performances in Poor Things and Killers of the Flower Moon, there's ways to do so. Some of the nominees are still in cinemas, while others are available to stream — or will be soon.
Here is everything you need to know about how to watch the Oscars winners at home.
🍿 Oscars 2024 recap
American Fiction | Prime Video
American Fiction, Cord Jefferson's satire on the book and film industry has gained huge critical acclaim thanks to its sharp script and impressive performances by Jeffrey Wright and Sterling K Brown, both of whom were nominated for Oscars. Jefferson won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
For those hoping to watch the film ahead now, one way to do so is to go to a cinema near you or the movie is available to stream on Prime Video.
Anatomy of a Fall | Buy & rent
Justine Triet's Palme d'Or winning film Anatomy of a Fall quickly became one of the most talked about foreign films of the year. It follows a woman who is suspected of murdering her husband, and the moral dilemma it poses when their blind son is the only witness. It won Best Original Screenplay at the Oscars.
The film is still showing in cinemas, but it is also available to buy and rent on all good retailers, like Apple TV, the Sky Store, Prime Video and the BFI Player.
Barbie | Sky Cinema and NOW
Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie were the undisputed champions of the box office in 2023 thanks to their film Barbie, which surpassed £1bn at the box office and has become a huge cultural milestone in cinema. The film follows Robbie's Barbie as she travelled to the real world in order to learn why strange things have been happening to her, and Ken (Ryan Gosling) is along for the ride. It won Best Original Song at the Oscars.
For those who didn't catch it in the cinema, or simply want to enjoy it again, they can do so by streaming the film on Sky Cinema and NOW in March.
The Holdovers | Buy & rent
Paul Giamatti gave Cillian Murphy a run for his money in the Best Actor in a Leading Role race this year, and that is thanks to his performance in The Holdovers. Da'Vine Joy Randolph won in the Best Supporting Actress category.
Alexander Payne's moving film portrays three unlikely characters finding comfort in each other's company over the Christmas holiday. The film is in cinemas now but is also available to buy and rent on services like Apple TV, the Sky Store, Prime Video and Google Play.
The Holdovers will also arrive on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD from 22 April.
Killers of the Flower Moon | Apple TV+
Martin Scorsese's brutal epic Killers of the Flower Moon depicts the shocking true story of the Osage nation murders in the 1920s. It was a period when countless Native American people were killed after the community discovered oil on their land and became targets as a result. The film didn't win any Oscars in the end, despite 10 nominations.

Oppenheimer | Buy & rent

Poor Things | Disney+
Yorgos Lanthimos has once again triumphed in awards season with his latest film Poor Things, which has gained the most critical acclaim for Emma Stone's portrayal of Bella Baxter.

Poor Things is available to stream to Disney+ subscribers. The platform has even launched a new deal for a limited time for new and returning subscribers.
The Zone of Interest | In cinemas and digitally
Jonathan Glazer was the dark horse of the competition with his film The Zone of Interest, which depicts the life that SS Officer Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig are trying to build for their family just outside of the Auschwitz concentration camp.
