IMDb Seen: When Countries Choose Wrongly
Anatomy of a Fall (2023) is one of the most acclaimed and nominated films at the 96th Academy Awards, but it comes as a surprise that it is not in contention for the International Film Oscar. The reason for this is that, in order to compete in that category, the country of origin of the film has to submit it for consideration, and each country can submit only one film. If Anatomy of a Fall (2023) had been submitted, it would be the favorite to win the award; instead, the field is open for other contenders. It is not the first time that a foreign country submits a film instead of another that ends up being better liked at the Oscars. In which of these cases do you think the submitting country made the biggest mistake? After voting, share your opinion. Poll by Pencho15
