Anora, the Oscar-winning film, is now available for viewers to stream. This year, it received several Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actress, which was awarded to
Mikey Madison for her portrayal of the main character.
The Oscar-winning film Anora is now streaming on Hulu for subscribers. It can also be purchased or rented on platforms like Disney+, Apple TV, and
Amazon Prime Video.
This release strategy aligns with Neon’s approach, as the distributor is known for making its films available on digital streaming platforms just months after their theatrical debut.
In 'Anora', a young Brooklyn woman's life takes a dramatic turn when she marries the son of a Russian oligarch, offering her a chance at a fairytale life. But when the news spreads to Russia, her newfound happiness is threatened as his parents arrive in New York determined to annul the marriage.
Mikey Madison plays the role of Ani (or Anora), while
Mark Eydelshteyn portrays Ivan and Yura Borisov plays Igor in the film Anora. Written and directed by
Sean Baker, known for The Florida Project and Red Rocket, the movie is rated R and blends drama, comedy, and romance.
During the Oscars, 'Anora' director Sean Baker delivered a heartfelt speech after winning Best Picture, emphasizing the importance of independent filmmaking. He thanked the Academy for recognizing a film made on "blood, sweat, and tears" by indie artists and encouraged filmmakers to keep telling meaningful stories. Co-producers Alex Coco and
Samantha Quan quoted similar sentiments, highlighting the film's modest budget and the dedication of its small crew. Coco called 'Anora' proof that independent films can thrive, while Quan urged aspiring filmmakers to follow their passion.
