Awards Bound - Reaction To Foreign Film Shortlist - a podcast by One Week Only - Podcast

The shortlist has been announced for the Foreign Language Film category of the Academy Awards! Suprisingly, all 9 films on the shortlist are fantastic choices: A Fantastic Woman (Chile), In The Fade (Germany), On Body and Soul (Hungary), Foxtrot (Israel), The Insult (Lebanon), Loveless (Russia), Félicité (Senegal), The Wound (South Africa), and The Square (Sweden)! It's also an incredibly diverse list, with 2 films from Africa, 1 film from Latin America, 2 films with LGBT stories, and 1 film with a female director! We react to this overwhelming list, discuss the so-called "snubs" of BPM and First They Killed My Father, and predict which of these films will end up getting nominated.
