Great films of 2024 that won’t get ANY Oscar nominations

Hey gang,

I do this little awards group like the Oscars but we only nominate films that weren’t nominated for any Oscars. I am in need of recommendations of great films from 2024 that are flying under the awards radars.

I actually have a list of films recommended to me throughout the year, so if anyone has any comments on these films to help me prioritize, awesome, or if you have other gems I should add I’d be very appreciative. I know some of these might grab a nomination, but still.

Here’s my current list:

Familiar Touch
National Anthem
Kneecap
How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies
The Last Showgirl
Megalopolis
Smile 2
Ghostlight
The Beast
His Three Daughters
Exhibiting Forgiveness
Femme
The Secret Art of Taking Flight
Los Frikis
Soundtrack to a Coup de Ta
Black Box Diaries
Better Man
Between the Temples
Strange Darling
The Count of Monte Cristo
Trap
Monkey Man
Do Not Expect Too Much…End of The World
Bird
Good One
Didi
Sasquatch Sunset
We Grown Now
Last of the Seawomen
Gaucho Gaucho
Made in England
Promised Land
The Animal Kingdom
The Beast
Janet Planet
His Three Daughters
Snack Shack
Strange Darling
Kinds of Kindness

Also, if you watch a lot of films and this stuff is fun for you, I’d love to have you join the group, just shoot me a message.

Thanks!

Ben

EDIT: I just wanted to thank everyone for these awesome suggestions. My awards group is called The ORCA Film Awards and some of you have reached out to join which I'm very excited about. If anyone else is interested in receiving a ballot just email [email protected] and I'll add you to the list.

EDIT 2: For anyone interested, I just made a subreddit for The ORCA Awards. If you enjoyed the discussion here, please consider joining and voting this year! I think it’d be cool to have a lot of people from all over the world participate.

My first post has my updated list of 2024 films that includes every suggestion made here. If you’re interested, please check out https://www.reddit.com/r/ORCAfilmawards/s/UH9Gf6qNYu
