Which Movie Will Win the Most Oscars?
On Kalshi, "The Brutalist" is the favorite to win the most awards, with 39% support from the public. It is followed by "Anora" with 22% and "Wicked" with 10%.
Why is "The Brutalist" Favored?
You might be wondering why "The Brutalist" is one of the top contenders for the most Oscars and a leading favorite for Best Picture.
At the Golden Globe Awards, the film took home the top prize for Best Motion Picture — Drama. Brady Corbet, who also co-wrote the film, won Best Director, while Adrien Brody earned Best Male Actor.
The film tells the story of László Tóth, a Hungarian-Jewish architect and Holocaust survivor who immigrates to the U.S. in 1947 with his wife, Erzsébet, hoping to rebuild their lives and careers.
László is hired by wealthy industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren to design an ambitious modernist monument. However, what begins as the pursuit of the American Dream soon becomes a complex journey as he faces challenges that put his artistic vision and personal integrity to the test.
Spanning nearly 30 years, the film delves into themes of ambition, identity and the immigrant experience in post-war America. The Brutalist has earned seven Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Supporting Actor for Peter Sarsgaard.
What is Kalshi?
Different from a traditional sportsbook and available in all 50 states, Kalshi allows users to make predictions across several unique markets, including sports, entertainment, elections and even weather.
Kalshi operates on a contract-based system where users buy "contracts" (priced between 1–99 cents) based on whether they believe a specific event will happen. The price of each contract fluctuates in real time based on market sentiment and, like the stock market, traders can sell positions early to lock in profits (or minimize losses).
