The American Film Academy held a traditional gala reception in honour of the nominees for the Oscars 2024. Its guests were such Hollywood stars as Robert Downey Jr, Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Christopher Nolan, Mark Ruffalo, Steven Spielberg and many others.
Film Academy President Janet Young welcomed the attendees to the “main event of the season” and reminded that the 96th Academy Awards ceremony will be held on 10 March and will start an hour earlier than usual, at 4 p.m. Eastern Time, and that daylight saving time is on the same day, which means that all Hollywood stars should remember to reset their clocks. She also urged future Oscar 2024 winners to cut their performances to 45 seconds.
