Between widespread criticism of the film itself and resurfaced tweets from its lead star, the Oscars front-runner has been marred by tons of controversy.

"With 13 Oscar nominations and at least three probable wins, Jacques Audiard's 'Emilia Pérez' hardly needs additional praise at this point," said Tim Robey in The Telegraph. "That's lucky, since most people would rather be caught dead than bestow any."

Jacques Audiard's Spanish-language film nabbed 13 Oscar noms but many moviegoers say it's inauthentic in terms of Mexico and trans issues

The resulting film, a trans-narco-musical fever dream called “Emilia Pérez”, has earned 13 Oscar nominations. Since the Academy Awards began in 1929, only three films have received more. No other foreign-language film ever has.

The Oscar Nominations are here, and 'Emilia Pérez' is up for 13 different awards. Unfortunately though, the internet didn't think this was a good thing.
