LOS ANGELES, Jan 22 — Alfonso Cuaron’s Roma, an ode to his childhood in 1970s Mexico City, and offbeat royal romp The Favourite today topped the Oscar nominations with 10 each.

Popular musical romance A Star Is Born finished with eight nominations — though star and filmmaker Bradley Cooper was notably denied a nod for his directing debut.

The Oscars will be handed out in Hollywood on February 24. — AFP
