The gongs have been clanging in for The Secret Agent since Cannes almost a year ago, where Kleber Mendonça Filho bagged Best Director and Wagner Moura picked up Best Actor (Moura has added a Golden Globe and a gaggle of others to his mantlepiece in the meantime).
Pesky Timothée Chalamet (seemingly behind the wheel of an awards steamroller) will almost certainly put an end to Moura’s spree at the Oscars, although there’s a chance this could pip Sentimental Value for Best International Feature (arguably the category with the better, more interesting movies).
