Peter T Chattaway Posted February 4 Author Report Share Posted February 4 Oscars’ Animated, Documentary and International Feature Submissions Revealed In the documentary feature realm, a record 238 docs are among the contenders, crushing the record of 170 submissions from 2017. Among the pics is Amazon Studios’ “Time,” which won the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, National Board of Review and New York Film Critics Circle awards for best documentary. It’s the first film since Sarah Polley’s “Stories We Tell” (2012) to win the big three critics’ prizes. However, Polley’s movie failed to get an Academy Awards nomination. . . . See the complete list of documentary feature submission on the Academy website. Variety, January 28 Quote "Sympathy must precede belligerence.

Peter T Chattaway Posted March 11 Author Report Share Posted March 11 (edited) The ACE Eddie Award nominees in this category: All In: The Fight for Democracy, Nancy Novack Dick Johnson is Dead, Nels Bangerter The Dissident, Scott D. Hanson, James Leche, Wyatt Rogowski, Avner Shiloah My Octopus Teacher, Pippa Ehrlich, Dan Schwalm The Social Dilemma, Davis Coombe All In: The Fight for Democracy, Dick Johnson Is Dead and My Octopus Teacher are on the Oscar shortlist. All In: The Fight for Democracy has a Writers Guild nomination, Dick Johnson Is Dead has a Producers Guild nomination, and My Octopus Teacher has Producers Guild, Directors Guild, Motion Picture Sound Editors and Cinema Audio Society nominations. (The Dissident and The Social Dilemma have a few guild nominations too, but they're not on the Oscar shortlist, so their guild recognition has no prognosticative utility.)

The winner will be announced April 17. And the winner is... The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart! That just leaves one guild that hasn't announced its winners yet -- the American Society of Cinematographers -- and none of their candidates got any Oscar nominations. So, of the three Oscar nominees that had guild nominations, two didn't win anything, and My Octopus Teacher won two -- specifically, it won the Producers Guild Award and the ACE Eddies award -- but it lost the awards from the directors' guild and both of the sound guilds.
