76 films are those that have been submitted to the preselection at the Oscar Best Foreign Language Film, although not all films really have real nomination options.
Here are the 15 films that seem to have the best chance of being in the top five nominees for this Academy Award.
Two films that seem to have a guaranteed nomination, although with the academy you never know and less in this category, are the Danish film «The Hunt»And the representative of Iran, a country that won just two editions ago,«Le Passé«.
«Green bicycle»It seems that it is also among those with the most options, although this could be due to the implications of this film, the first film shot by a woman in Saudi Arabia, not because of its quality.
The Italian «The great beauty«, Multi-nominated at the European Film Awards, the Canadian«Gabrielle«, The Australian«The Rocket»Or the winner of the last Berlinale, the Romanian«Child's Pose«They also have great options this year to win the nomination for the Oscar Best Film in Non-English Speech.
The hope of Spanish-speaking cinema in this category passes this year through the Chilean film «Gloria«, Although there is also talk of others such as the Mexican«Heli»Or Argentina«wakolda«, Although it seems that these two are further from the statuette.
