A lot of moviegoers are used to having Oscar-nominated movies premiere where they live after they've received those nominations; usually late January or early February. But it's not often an Oscar-nominated movie makes its US premiere more than two months after the Oscar trophies have been handed out. But that's the case for the Oscar-nominated animated feature Robot Dreams.
Though it lost to The Boy and the Heron for the top prize, Robot Dreams was one of the best-reviewed movies (animated or otherwise) of 2023. Hailing from Spanish filmmaker Pablo Berger, the movie was described as "beautiful, unexpected and tender" by Oscar-winning director Guillermo del Toro. With all these plaudits, there's a level of excitement for it to finally become available in the US.
