  • Published

The Oscars race is rapidly taking shape, following the conclusion of the autumn film festivals where many of the expected frontrunners premiered.

Most of this year's awards-tipped films have now been seen by critics, although a handful of possible contenders still have to launch before the end of the year.

Awards season arguably kicks off on 9 December, when the nominations are announced for the first major film ceremony, the Golden Globes.

But in truth, studios launch their campaigns much earlier, as the major films premiere at the Venice, Telluride, Toronto, Cannes and Sundance festivals.

Ahead of the Baftas on 16 February and Oscars on 2 March, here's the ABC (Anora, Blitz, Conclave) of all the films you need to know about.
