No Elle or Neruda. An animated film made the shortlist.

Based on the reviews, Toni Erdmann should be winning this?

Elle not making it is kinda shocking. Also surprised The Handmaiden is out. Toni Erdmann *should* win, but this category often doesn't go the way it *should*. I hope The Salesman wins, it is superb.

Elle's failure to make the cut should haven't an effect on Huppert getting a nom. The same thing happened to Two Days, One Night and Marion Cotillard still got nominated.

In fact that snub might actually help her chances.

Wouldn't be surprised if A Man Called Ove won. Seems a comfy, Academy-friendly choice, and it did well in theatres for a tiny foreign film.
