[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was a fantastic documentary, very well presented. It was a total emotional rollercoaster; my DW cried multiple times.

The whole thing was horrifying but also oddly optimistic. It showed the power of family and love. I think the most prescient quote from the film was: "Nature and nurture are in close competition throughout our lives."

[b]The film asked a lot of big questions about life. Again, it was a fascinating story that was told perfectly.[/b] [/quote]

I'm surprised it wasn't nominated for the best documentary Oscar. [/quote]

2nd.

My guess is that because it was acquired by CNN and distributed through TV, the Oscars held a bias against it. It didn't go through the normal theatrical distribution channels.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of Hollywood types have used the adoption services through Louise Wise and NY Jewish Family Services. The film hinted that the organization is politically VERY powerful and has lots of connections in high places to stymie oversight.  [/quote]
