But you've got to be organized, right?
Not to worry, we have you covered.
First, download our spreadsheet for Oscar Watch List. On the "Films" tab, use the pull-down menu to indicate which films you've seen. The "By Category" tab will help you see which categories most important to you still need to be rounded out.
Now check the list below to see where you can find the nominees. Some are out on DVD or soon will be. You may be able to borrow them for free from the San Francisco Public Library. Some are available from Netflix Streaming. Some are still in theaters.
