[the country's critics have slated the film](https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/jan/27/oscar-all-quiet-on-the-western-front-germany-critics), and one key theme of their damning reviews is that Berger has a severe case of "Oscar-Geilheit" or "lust for an Oscar".

It might be German, but in many respects, it is the most obvious best picture nominee of the lot. There was a time, in the 1990s and 2000s, when everyone knew what an "Oscar movie" was. In other words, they watched the kind of film that used to win best picture on a regular basis. [Top Gun: Maverick](https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20220512-top-gun-maverick-hits-its-target-with-explosive-force) was a commercial and critical smash, so that was always a shoo-in, too. And they watched a film whose scenes of death, destruction and misery resonated with reports from the invasion of Ukraine. As well as funding All Quiet on the Western Front, Netflix has done an exemplary job of promoting it, ensuring that it is hard to log on to the platform without being reminded of its existence. But the new rule has led to more unusual films appearing in the best picture line-up – and more films that aren't in English, too. The film is adapted from a first-person, present-tense account of a German soldier's dehumanising ordeal in the trenches. [The Fabelmans](https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20221118-spielbergs-the-fabelmans-review-an-emotional-crowd-pleaser) is the venerable Steven Spielberg's love letter to cinema, for instance, so that was a dead cert.
