NO REPORTER NARRATION.

'Roma' and ' The Favourite' led the 91st Oscar nominations on Tuesday (January 22), receiving nods in 10 categories each - including best picture and best director.

Netflix has received its first ever best picture Oscar nomination for Alfonso Cuaron's 'Roma' - a black-and-white, Spanish language, coming-of-age exploration of the director's youth and the life of the nanny who helped to raise him.

Comedy-drama 'The Favourite' sees actress Olivia Colman play Britain's 18th-Century Queen Anne as a frail and insecure royal - easily influenced by her friend Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough, portrayed by Academy Award winner Rachel Weisz.

They face some fierce competion in 'A Star Is Born', featuring Bradley Cooper - who also received a nomination for best actor, Spike Lee's 'BlacKkKlansman', Queen movie 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'Green Book' set in the segregated U.S. deep South in the early 1960s, 'Black Panther' - the first superhero movie to be nominated for best picture, and political comedy 'Vice.'
