The Academy Awards rolls out its red carpet Feb. 24.

With only a few weeks to go before the prestigious, 85th annual event, you may be experiencing a surge of Netflix rentals to get you ready for the big night.

Letting your inner film geek out to play doesn’t mean you have to suppress your inner style guru, though.

After all, that’s what Pinterest was made for. And nothing says “style” like these 10 Pinterest boards devoted to all things cinematic.

1) 2013 Oscars | 85th Academy Awards Nominees

This board by user keekz4prez is just what it says on the tin, showcasing posters and still images from all this year’s nominated films.

3) My fave movies & series by posters
