Sinners nominations combined with One Battle After Another's (13) and Amy Madigan's nod for Weapons, make a total of 30 nominations for Warner Bros.... such an impressive score!
A note about the strong showing of international films with Sentimental Value and The Secret Agent scoring multiple nods, including Best Picture.
