Sean Baker's Anora has emerged as the Oscar front-runner for best picture.

The film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes and grossed more than $36 million globally against a $6 million budget.

Anora is the fifth consecutive movie distributed by Neon in the U.S. to win the prestigious prize on the Croisette .

The most tangible piece, the thing that I focus on is the interest in seeing your film combined with the things that matter most.

The idea of trying to understand where a movie sits inside of a season that doesn’t report its box office—they’re not part of the scorecard.

Having faith in your film in that regard is the most important.

There are films in the race that have grossed more than 20 times what Anora has, and others with relatively massive campaign budgets.

The Academy Award is a celebration of cinema. Always has been and always will be. It’s not an Emmy. Most awards teams are larger than our whole company. Sometimes we have to be more creative.
