"Snow White", "The Artist and the Model" and "Group 7" aspiring to represent Spain at the Oscars

The artist and the model

The three applicants to represent Spanish cinema in the Hollywood Academy Awards have been announced within the category of Best Foreign Language Film, "Snow White" by Pablo Berger, "The Artist and the Model" by Fernando Trueba and "Group 7" by Alberto Rodríguez are the three films that qualify for this privilege.

It has also been announced that three films will be present at the next gala of the Ariel Awards, the highest Mexican awards. In this case they will also be "Snow White" and "The Artist and the Model", and in this case "Invader" by David Calparsoro is added to them.

Pablo Berger will choose to represent the country with what may be the most curious national film of the year. «Snow White»It is an adaptation of the classic story of the Brothers Grimm set in southern Spain. In black and white, silent and with its dwarves dedicated to bullfighting, it is the riskiest bet in order to seek, at the very least, the nomination for the statuette.

Snow White

«The artist and the model»May be the best option since its director, Fernando Trueba, is liked by the Academy. In his day he already won the Oscar for Belle Epoque and last year he was a candidate in the category of best animated film with« Chico y Rita ».

Set in Seville prior to Expo-92, «Group 7»This is the most commercial option of the three. It is the only shortlisted that has gone through the Spanish box office and with very good numbers, but it does not seem an option in the face of opting for the Oscar or even for the candidacy.

Group 7

The film representing Spain will be released on September 27.
