I'd say Anora and The Brutalist are the only ones of those that have a chance, and the latter seems pretty unlikely.

Anora isn't a womens' rights pic, it's about capitalism and how hard it is to gain any upward mobility
AND Gladiator 2 and Sept 5 aren't even nominated for Best picture!

I guess that Best Picture nominees hadn't been announced at the time, and that Anora hadn't had a wide release yet so this person probably hadn't seen it

I hope they hadn't seen Anora yet. Otherwise, I'd really love a follow-up on what makes it a female rights movie in their mind.
But then again it's possible this is just an anti-woke person heading at attention straws.
