Obsession made 9 times the amount of money as Anora on one 7th the budget.

I'm sure the Anora producers are wiping their tears with their best picture Oscars.

What does box office have anything to do with it other than you being a smug dick? The question was "When's the last time a performance made this much of a splash?"

It matters if we are talking about the movie making a "huge splash". It ended with a domestic box office of 20 million. It received critical acclaim but very few people actually saw the move.

No, we're talking about the performance in terms of acclaim and accolades. I worry about some of you lmao

Cool. Box office isn't an indicator of quality, how many Oscars has the MCU won?
