Showing at DCA now are Hamnet, which has been nominated for eight Oscars, and Marty Supreme, nominated for nine.
Both films are competing in the Best Picture category against Bugonia, F1, Frankenstein, One Battle After Another and Sentimental Value, which you may have seen at DCA in 2025, plus The Secret Agent coming next month, and Train Dreams.
Another interesting Best Picture category this year – big hitters One Battle After Another and Sinners have been dead certs to be nominated for a while, but I’m delighted to see Sentimental Value in there. Hamnet certainly feels like the film of the moment here at DCA, but looking past that – The Secret Agent, Sirât and If I Had Legs I’d Kick You will all be on our screens before the awards ceremony in March, and we’ll be bringing back a few of the other nominated films for anyone who missed them first time around too.

Be sure to catch two of the fantastic performances featured the Best Actress category on the big screen: Song Sung Blue starring Kate Hudson, showing until Sun 1 February, and If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, starring Rose Byrne, coming in March.
The Best International Feature Film category is especially strong this year too, with five powerful films including The Voice of Hind Rajab, showing this week at DCA, and The Secret Agent, which has four Oscar nominations in total, including one for Wagner Moura, the first-ever Brazilian to be nominated for Best Actor.
