The red carpet isn’t the only place to catch this year’s Oscar buzz. Before Hollywood crowns its winners, Cinemark is bringing the celebration to the big screen nationwide.
Starting Monday and continuing for a week, movie lovers can experience this year’s most acclaimed films again in Cinemark auditoriums.
Presented as part of the annual Oscars Movie Week Festival, the event invites audiences to savor the artistry of cinema before the 98th Academy Awards next Sunday, which will be broadcast on ABC, streamed on Hulu and hosted by Conan O’Brien.
“Oscars Movie Week is all about honoring the artistry of film and giving cinephiles the chance to experience these acclaimed titles in the unparalleled movie theater environment,” Cinemark official Wanda Gierhart said in a press release. “We’re excited to bring back this beloved tradition where audiences can watch these powerful stories unfold from our Cinemark auditoriums, while also enjoying new curated beverage and merchandise offerings for an awards-worthy experience.”
Moviegoers can grab their popcorn and catch select nominees from this year’s Best Picture, Live Action Short Film and Animated Short Film categories during the weeklong event.
