Catching all the Best Picture Oscar nominees before showtime? Totally doable. You’ve even got time to see almost all the nominated acting performances if you play your cards right (though you’ll have to wait a bit to rent “Trumbo”).
Here’s where to find all the Best Picture nominees, and the films that didn’t make the Best Picture cut but have nominated acting performances. We’ve included approximate release dates, too. Our advice: See the oldest ones first (before they leave theaters), then the big new ones, and fill in your free nights with the ones out on DVD.
The 2015 Oscars air Feb. 28. Get the full list of nominees at Oscar.go.com.
You’ve got this. Get busy!
