Oscars 2019: Definitely not the Best Picture of 2018

All 44 films with at least one Academy Award nomination, but not a Best Picture nomination, for the 91st (24 Feb 2019) Oscars. Nominated categories in notes.

I watch the nominees for Best Picture every year; this list is to help me focus on the “lesser” films. My tally on the morning of the nominations was a typically low two films watched (4%).
