STATE COLEGE — The 96th Academy Awards will be presented in Hollywood Sunday, March 10, and, as usual, there is tremendous interest in which films, actors, actresses and directors will come away with the major statues at this year’s ceremony.

The list is impressive. With films like “Oppenheimer,” “Barbie,” “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Maestro” and “Past Lives” along with a long slate of A-listers up for awards, the fascination and intrigue about who will walk away with the trophies is at an all-time high.

With a stellar lineup of artistic talent and creations, it is interesting to observe that the 2023 Centre Film Festival made presentations to an actress and a short film that are among the nominees for Oscars this year.
