You might feel that we are jumping the gun by already discussing whether Sam Mendes' directorial '1917' will take home the Best Picture even as the Academy is yet to announce Oscars 2020&nbsp;nominations list.&nbsp;

'1917' has been making the right kind of buzz at awards season this year starting with the <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/2020-golden-globes-awards-the-complete-list-of-winners-272377">77th Golden Globes that picked the war film as the Best Picture </a>while Sam Mendes took home the Best Director award. Not only that a, the film has won some love at the <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bafta-2020-british-academy-of-film-and-television-arts-awards-the-complete-nominations-list-272705">BAFTA 2020 </a>too where the film cemented its place in the Best Film category along with some other favourites this year like 'Joker', 'Parasite', 'Once Upon A Time in Hollywood', 'The Irishman' and others.&nbsp;

Considering that these awards, that announced their lists prior to Oscars guide the road for films in The Academy Awards too, '1917' will most likely make it to the Oscars 2020 nominations. Once we know that the war film has made it to the list, our hunch says that the film is probable to even win the Best Film Oscars.&nbsp;

Our hot favourite Oscars&nbsp;prediction for Best Film is '1917' and if this comes true, it&nbsp;would become the first war movie after 'Hurt Locker' to win the coveted prize. 'Hurt Locker' won Best Picture Oscars in 2009. Before that, it was 'Wings' that released in&nbsp;1928.&nbsp;

According to our overall predictions, the war film '1917' is likely to get nominated in 10 categories --&nbsp;Best Picture, Best Director, Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing, Best Production Design, Best Score, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing and Best Visual Effects.<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/will-oscars-2020-follow-bafta-in-leaving-non-white-actors-female-directors-from-key-nominations-273246">&nbsp;Will Oscars 2020 follow BAFTA in excluding non-white actors, female directors from key nominations?</a>

'1917' is a film based in the first World War and takes place in northern France.

Oscars 2020 predictions: Will Sam Mendes' '1917' become first war film after 'Hurt Locker' to win Best Picture?

Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards have more or less given us hints of which films, director and actors will get a nod at the Oscars 2020 on Monday morning as the Academy announces the final list.&nbsp; 
 
Trade pundits have been betting heavily on South Korean dark comedy 'Parasite' this year and for good reasons. The film, directed by Bong Joon-Ho has been creating waves in festivals across the world the past year. It has fetched the Joon-ho the best director award at Sunday's <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/critics-choice-awards-2020-the-complete-list-of-winners-273865">Critics' Choice Awards </a>and best foreign film award at the Golden Globes 2020. <a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/oscars-2020-21-movies-you-should-watch-before-the-awards-night-273034">Also see:&nbsp;21 movies you should watch before the awards night</a>

'Parasite' is likely to create history on Monday as it will become the first Korean film to get nominated at the Oscars. The film is likely to land several nominations, including best foreign film, best director and best supporting actor for Song Kang Ho.&nbsp;

Another major player this year at Oscars will be OTT giant Netflix which is gunning to take the top awards with two of its films- 'The Irishman' and 'Marriage Story'. Martin Scorsese's film made news ever since its inception and 'The Irishman' is likely to fetch nomination in the direction and best film category while Noah Baumbach’s intimate divorce drama 'Marriage Story' will get acting nods.&nbsp;

Quentin Tarantino's love letter to 1960s Hollywood- 'Once Upon A Time In Hollywood' is likely to lead the nominations at Oscars this year. The film's lead actors Leonardo Di Caprio and Brad Pitt will find their mentions in the best actor and best supporting actor category. Tarantino has already fetched best screenplay awards at <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/2020-golden-globes-the-complete-nominations-list-267269">Golden Globes</a> and Critics' Choice Awards and will get nods at Oscars as well in the same category as well in the direction category.&nbsp;

Sam Mendes' war drama '1917' is also a strong contender in the best film and direction category. The film may not earn any acting nods, but will surely find a place in the technical categories.&nbsp;

Todd Philips' <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/joker-review-joaquin-phoenix-is-terrific-in-an-extremely-disturbing-film-253248">'Joker' </a>may get featured in the best film category but pundits feel that the Academy may overlook it for Taika Waititi’s 'Jojo Rabbit'. 'Joker' will, though, fetch nomination for its lead actor Joaquin Phoenix who is likely to win it a month later on the awards night.&nbsp;

Among the actress, Renee Zellwegger's portrayal of Judy Garland in 'Judy' is the strongest contender in Best actress slot. She will have Scarlett Johanson and Jennifer Lopez for the company. If Awkwafina gets nominated for 'The Farewell' she will be the second woman of Asian descent nominated in the category.&nbsp;

Oscars 2020 will be taking place in Hollywood on February 9.&nbsp;

Oscars 2020: Here's the full list of nominees

South Korean film ‘Parasite’ is doing good for itself now that the Oscars 2020 nominations list is out and the film has cemented its place as a history-maker.

In a first, ‘Parasite’ has been nominated in both Best Foreign Film and Best Picture category. This is a first time for a South Korean film. <a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/oscars-2020-best-film-nominee-273954">Get to know all Best Picture Oscars nominees here.</a>

‘Parasite’ director Bong Joon Ho also picked a nod for Best Director, in addition to Original Screenplay with Jin Won Han.

The South Korean comedy first made its worldwide impact at Cannes Film Festival in France when it saw its world premiere. It then travelled to different film festivals and opened to a massive success at worldwide box office. The film has since then been winning hearts at award shows including Golden Globes and the likes.

The Oscars-nominated film is about a family of small-time con artists and grifters who come in contact with a Wealthy businessman and his family. The film deals with important issues of inequality.

The non-Hollywood film is now here to make history as the hot favourite could also pick the most coveted Oscar prize, for all we know. In a recent interview, the director had said that if the film gets an Oscar nod, it could help in viewers trying to get to know more about South Korean films. He said, “Korean cinema has a long history. There are many masters that have yet to be introduced to the Western audience. It would be great if people take more interest in Korean cinema due to my nomination.” <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/oscars-2020-predictions-will-sam-mendes-1917-become-first-war-film-after-hurt-locker-to-win-best-picture-273769">Also read: Oscars 2020 predictions: Will Sam Mendes' '1917' become first war film after 'Hurt Locker' to win Best Picture?</a>
