Where to Stream 2024 Oscar Winners, From ‘Oppenheimer’ to ‘Poor Things’
Most of the night’s winners can be watched at home. Here’s a guide to help you find the honorees.For the second year in a row, following “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” a single film dominated the Oscars with seven awards as “Oppenheimer,” Christopher Nolan’s imposing portrait of the architect of the atomic bomb, took picture and director, and picked up nods for two of its stars, Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. Subscribers to Peacock can currently stream the film, but it’s an affordable rent on all the major platforms. With the exception of the visual effects wonder “Godzilla Minus One” and the two animated films, Hayao Miyazaki’s feature “The Boy and the Heron” and the short “War Is Over! Inspired by the Work of John and Yoko,” all of the other Oscar winners are accessible through either streaming services or the usual outlets. With war as a major theme throughout the ceremony, it’s worth noting that “20 Years in Mariupol,” the documentary winner about the Russian siege on the Ukrainian city, is currently available for free on Frontline PBS’s YouTube page.‘Oppenheimer’The writer and director Christopher Nolan narrates the opening sequence from the film, starring Cillian Murphy.Melinda Sue Gordon/Universal Pictures, via Associated PressWon for: Best picture, director, actor, supporting actor, cinematography, editing, score.How to watch: Stream it on Peacock.

But there’s a disturbing intimacy to the film as well, with Cillian Murphy’s tremulous J. Robert Oppenheimer leading an unstable band of scientists while nearly drowning in uncharted political and ethical waters. In exploring the origins of a technological boogeyman that continues to haunt humankind, Nolan embraces the contradictions of the flawed, brilliant man whose spirit seems to embody it.‘Poor Things’The director Yorgos Lanthimos narrates a sequence from the film in which the characters played by Emma Stone and Mark Ruffalo share a dance.Atsushi Nishijima/Searchlight PicturesWon for: Best actress, production design, costume design, makeup and hairstyling.How to watch: Stream it on Hulu.
