Sean Baker’s film Anora became the surprise champion of the Oscars, sweeping five major awards. But there’s just one tiny issue: nobody watched it.
The reason? The plot didn’t spark any interest, the title made no sense, and the cast had zero star power. “Anora? What is that? Who is that? Is it a place? A skincare brand?” – these were the main reactions from moviegoers when they saw it listed in the nominations. With no A-list celebrities, the public quickly moved on, probably rewatching the latest Marvel trailer instead.
🎥 No Stars, No Audience, But an Oscar: The Anora Phenomenon!
Still, the Academy was absolutely thrilled and even gave Anora an extra Oscar: “The Movie No One Saw Except the Academy”. According to insiders, even some jury members couldn’t recall what it was about but praised it as “important.”
Now, Anora officially holds the title of the most successful movie no one cared to see. But don’t worry – if it ever hits streaming, audiences will finally get their chance… to ignore it again. 🎬😆
