[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Although I'm sure it won't win because of Oscar politics, I urge folks here to see a nominated film that hasn't been mentioned in the thread and which is a brilliantly written story of marriage directed by a female and with fantastic performances especially from Sandra Huller - Anatomy of a Fall. The film is mixed English and French, so you will need to read subtitles for portions of it. [/quote]

This was good and I adore Sandra Huller (loved her in Toni Erdmann).
But I don't think it's worthy of Best Picture. It felt too much like a "TV movie" (a courtroom drama) than a cinematic experience.[/quote]

Tell that to Ordinary People and Kramer v. Kramer.

Some of the best films are serious dramas set in small spaces.[/quote]

Well, I agree. And I liked Kramer vs. Kramer a lot. Anatomy was just too melodramatic. [/quote]

DP. I loved OP and KvK, and love pretty much any courtroom drama. I looked forward to watching Anatomy but it felt predictable and boring to me. Maybe my anticipation of a "smart" courtroom drama was part of the problem. [/quote]
