Yura Borisov’s supporting turn, as well as Sean Baker’s directing and screenplay, also were recognized.

When Oscar nominations were announced on Jan. 23, “Anora” picked up all the nods it was expected to earn: picture, director, original screenplay, lead actress Mikey Madison, supporting actor Yura Borisov and film editing.

SAG though is another spot where “Anora” met expectations, picking up nominations for ensemble and individual nods for Madison and Borisov.

Warming up: A movie star in his native Russia, Borisov portrayed machine-gun inventor Mikhail Kalashnikov in “AK-47” before winning over “Anora” director Sean Baker with his nuanced character work in 2021’s “Compartment No. 6.”

Killer scene: Borisov as Igor, slouching on Ani’s couch, engages in broken-English small talk that warmly evokes their shared humanity despite the physical madness that came before.
