Annual US prizes for films (6)

I believe the answer is:

oscars

(Other definitions for oscars that I've seen before include "Cinema's Academy Awards" , "Movie awards" , "Hollywood Academy Awards" , "American film Awards" , "Awards, for dramatic achievements" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
