If she is able to crack into both the categories, Sandra would make history as the first actress to mark double nominations for two non-English language performances in the same year. Last week, Variety reported that Sandra Hüller will be campaigning in the Best Supporting Actress category for The Zone of Interest, while her work in Anatomy of a Fall, would certainly push her in the Lead category. The one who surprisingly scooped Best Actress at Cannes was Turkish actor Merve Dizdar for Nuri Bilge Ceylan's About Dry Grasses. French director Justine Triet won the coveted Palme d'Or and The Zone of Interest brought in the Grand Prix, the second topmost award at Cannes. Fontaine plays Lina Aysgarth, a rich woman who is wooed by the duplicitous moocher, Johnnie (Cary Grant), while on a first-class train car. Simmons, 'Being the Ricardos' Kodi Smit-McPhee, 'The Power of the Dog' Best. She won her Oscar for her performance in Alfred Hitchcocks film noir mystery, Suspicion.

The list includes Olivia Colman for The Favourite (2018), Vanessa Kirby for Pieces of a Woman (2020), Penélope Cruz for Parallel Mothers (2021) and Cate Blanchett for Tár (2022). The streak is unbeatable at this point- four of the past winners in the past five years of the festival have gone on to secure an Oscar nomination, with one winning.
