Where movies up for the award can be seen.

- By Amy Wong

The 2020 Oscar nomination­s were announced Monday morning to lots of … mixed feelings. If you want to catch up on some of the nominated films, here’s some informatio­n about where you can watch them.

“Ford v Ferrari” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Film Editing, Best Sound Editing,

Best Sound Mixing

Review: Whether you care about motorsport­s or not, “Ford v Ferrari” is a kick: both a rollicking true story well told, and a moving depiction of male friendship.

Where to watch: “Ford v Ferrari” is currently in theaters. “The Irishman” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, Best Adapted Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Production, Best Cinematogr­aphy, Best Costume Design, Best Film Editing, Best Visual Effects

Review: At 3.5 hours, “The Irishman” is long, to be sure, but it’s never less than compelling — Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci are each carrying a lifetime of work, with practiced ease.

Where to watch: “The Irishman” is streaming on Netflix. ”Jojo Rabbit” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Supporting Actress, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Production Design, Best Costume Design, Best Film Editing

Review: This sprightly, attractive­ly composed coming-of-age comedy set in World War II Germany is an audacious high-wire act: a satire in which a buffoonish Adolf Hitler delivers some of the funniest moments, a wrenchingl­y tender portrait of a mother’s love for her son and a lampoon of the most destructiv­e ideologica­l forces that still threaten society.

Where to watch: “Jojo Rabbit” is currently in theaters.

“Joker” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actor, Best Cinematogr­aphy, Best Makeup and Hairstylin­g, Best Costume Design, Best Film Editing, Best Original Score, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing

Review: While Joaquin Phoenix is always more than watchable, “Joker” is really has nowhere to go. Its characters are one-note cartoony, but fun is the last thing on this movie’s mind; it’s all despair, from its opening scenes on downward.

Where to watch: “Joker” is available to buy or rent from Amazon, Vudu, Google Play and more. “Little Women” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Score, Best Costume Design

Review: Gerwig, in only her second feature film (following “Lady Bird”), pulls off a resolutely faithful rendition of the book that’s nonetheles­s deeply creative.

Where to watch: “Little Women” is currently in theaters.

“Marriage Story” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Score

Review: Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver are remarkably, heartbreak­ingly good as a couple trying to understand why they don’t love each other anymore.

Where to watch: “Marriage

Story” is streaming on Netflix. “1917” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Original Score, Best Cinematogr­aphy, Best Makeup And Hairstylin­g, Best Production Design, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, Best Visual Effects

Review: Sam Mendes’ WWI movie, which just won two Golden Globes, is an emotional, moving experience that includes a brilliant feat of camera work.

Where to watch: “1917” is currently in theaters.

“Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood”

Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Cinematogr­aphy, Best Costume Design, Best Production

Design, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing

Review: What we have here, in Quentin Tarantino’s vision of Los Angeles at the time of the Manson family killings, is the past, reinvented wholesale, in what amounts to a phantasmag­oria of the late 1960s.

Where to watch: “Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood” is available to buy or rent from Amazon, Vudu, Google Play and more.

“Parasite” Nomination­s: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Internatio­nal Feature Film, Best Production Design, Best Film Editing

Review: It’s best to see this Cannes Film Festival grandprize winner by Korean filmmaker Bong Joon Ho not knowing too much about it; the better to let its sly power sneak up on you.

Where to watch: “Parasite” is currently in theaters. “The Two Popes” Nomination­s: Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Adapted Screenplay

Review: Who knew that serious talk about the future of the Catholic Church could be the source of so much fun?

Where to watch: “The Two Popes” is streaming on Netflix. “Bombshell” Nomination­s: Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Makeup and Hairstylin­g

Review: It’s a story that’s both dramatic and timely, with a celebrated cast more than able to jolt it to life. But something went wrong on the way to “Bombshell.”

Where to watch: “Bombshell” is currently in theaters.
