FOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONAFTERSUNIN ALL CATEGORIES INCLUDINGBEST PICTURE BEST DIRECTOR (Charlotte Wells) BEST ACTOR (Paul Mescal) BREAKTHROUGH (Paul Mescal) BREAKTHROUGH (Charlotte Wells) It’s not just a wrenching family drama but a fascinating meditation on memory, the poignant dance between past and present, and the experience of looking back on childhood with the perspective of an adult, seeing things we didn’t notice before.- Rob Thomas, Capital Times (Madison, WI)Charlotte Wells has produced something that will have us talking for years and years to come.- Alberto Cox Délano, PajibaThe fact that this is Charlotte Wells’ feature film writing and directorial debut is stunning. Her vision is laid out meticulously, is so well-paced, and it has one of the absolute best final scenes/images of the year.- Aaron White, Feelin' Film PodcastThere is so much going on in Aftersun that I might have to watch it again, and you know what? It will surely break my heart a second time.- Chris Wasser, Sunday Independent (Ireland)I had my top-five-movies-of-the-year list all sorted. Now - boom! - I’ve had to start from scratch. Damn you, Mescal, for being the cornerstone of something so beautiful.- Charlotte O'Sullivan, London Evening StandardSo memorable and moving the first time, Aftersun is all the more affecting seen again. And again. It deserves all the prizes.- David Sexton, New StatesmanEmotional, beautiful, and heartbreaking, Aftersun is perfection. In the moments of love and laughter, Wells is able to capture the sadness creeping in...- Kate Sánchez, But Why Tho? A Geek CommunityFrom its gut-wrenching script and stirring cinematography to brilliant performances from the always-spectacular Paul Mescal and newcomer Frankie Corio, Aftersun is a special one.- Lauren Bradshaw, Fangirl FreakoutA stunner, a heartbreaker on love, grief and the random moments in life that solidify into haunting memories.- Randy Myers, San Jose Mercury NewsWHERE TO STREAM: MUBI

Re: 2023 Movie Awards: For Your Consideration
I hope enough people have seen Cha Cha Real Smooth. It's a wonderful film and one of the best of 2022. It should have been another awards season winner for AppleTV+. It's the kind of indie crowd-pleaser that would have been a sleeper hit at the box office years ago before such films were relegated to streaming. I can't wait to see what Cooper Raiff does next. I hope whatever it is it's seen by more people than saw this absolute gem.

FOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONDON'T WORRY DARLINGIN ALL CATEGORIES INCLUDINGBEST ACTRESS (Florence Pugh) BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY BEST ORIGINAL SCORE BEST MAKEUP BEST ART DIRECTION BEST COSTUME DESIGN BEST EDITING Pugh's phenomenally ferocious femme grabs the story by the throat and does not let go.- Kate Rodger, Newshub (NZ)Reconfirms Pugh as an acting powerhouse.- Beth Accomando, KPBS.org“Don’t Worry Darling” is a well-made motion picture with outstanding production values and a spectacular lead performance by Florence Pugh at its core. It also proves that filmmaker Olivia Wilde can direct an action sequence with the best of them.- Michael Calleri, Niagara GazetteIt’s not easy playing most of a film in a state of paranoid terror, and somehow Pugh keeps it from becoming monotonous... This film is one more piece of evidence of this young British actress’ formidable powers.- Kristian M. Lin, Fort Worth WeeklyOlivia Wilde's Don't Worry Darling has lush visuals, excellent set design, and amazing performances from Pugh and Pine. - Natasha Alvar, Cultured VulturesDon't worry about the real-life drama. The majority of the "Don't Worry Darling" is captivating, with sleek visuals and camera angles, threads of dread sewn in, underscored by strikingly terrifying score that continues the momentum until the last act.- Nathalia Aryani, The MovieMavenWilde’s thriller succeeds on various levels. Pugh is very good while the cinematography and set design are impeccable. Also enjoyed John Powell's score.- Joe Friar, Fort Worth ReportPugh is phenomenal, throwing everything she has into her role and carrying large chunks of the film more or less single-handedly.- Wendy Ide, Observer (UK)The cinematography is beautiful with editing choices that are designed to fluster our senses to create anxiety and confusion.- Chris Joyce, Movies and Munchies (YouTube)

Re: 2023 Movie Awards: For Your Consideration
FYC - BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILMGIRL PICTUREGirl Picture is a close-to-perfect showcase of passion, desire, and the pursuit of liberation when it comes to identity. - Brittany Witherspoon, Screen RantCLOSEOSCAR NOMINEE - BEST INTERNATIONAL FEATUREClose is beautiful, sad, tender and wrenching, a towering achievement both at the level of craft and theme. - Paul Byrnes, Sydney Morning HeraldNow Playing In TheatersPIGGYWhile this intelligent Spanish slasher gleefully sloshes on the high-tension splatter, it also delights in inverting generic tropes, dishing up a lip-smacking level of moral complexity. - Larushka Ivan-Zadeh, Times (UK) Where to stream: HuluTHE INNOCENTSThere isn't a film like The Innocents out there. Hollywood isn’t bold enough and if you think these stories have been told before in “grounded” superhero films such as Chronicle, think again. This is one interesting film. - Federico Furzan, Go See TalkWhere to stream: AMC+HAPPENINGHappening is an honest, harrowing, frighteningly timely, moving, and powerful experience.- Matt Hudson, What I Watched TonightWhere to stream: Hulu

Re: 2023 Movie Awards: For Your Consideration
Has anyone else here actually seen Close? I would love to nominate it for more than just Foreign Language Film but I feel like it might be a waste. Such a terrific movie though.

Re: 2023 Movie Awards: For Your Consideration
Ok it's maybe pointless since most have sent in their ballots and most haven't seen it but I'm doing it. FOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONCLOSEIN ALL CATEGORIES INCLUDINGBEST PICTURE BEST DIRECTOR (Lukas Dhont) BEST ACTOR (Eden Dambrine) BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR (Gustav De Waele) BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS (Émilie Dequenne) BEST ACTING ENSEMBLE BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILM BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY BEST EDITING BEST ORIGINAL SCORE BEST ART DIRECTION [A] sharply observed, heartbreaking masterpiece...- G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco ChronicleThe loss of childhood innocence has rarely been portrayed so powerfully on screen as in this heartbreaking second feature from Belgian writer-director Lukas Dhont.- Frank Swietek, One Guy's OpinionEden Dambrine, Gustav De Waele, and Emile Dequuenne carry the emotional punch Dhont gives to the audience about being alone and how it connects with everyone.- Brian Susbielles, InSession FilmIt can be a cliche to say that a film will linger with viewers long after it ends, but Close earns that status as something beautiful, bittersweet and undeniably powerful.- Lisa Trifone, Third Coast ReviewWhat elevates Close is the almost casual way the worm of doubt can be installed in a previously happy existence—an observation devastatingly brought to life.- Robert Horton, The ScarecrowCLOSE is one of my favorite films from last year and earned its Oscar nomination.- JD Duran, InSession FilmClose is a portrait of before & after, of the intimacy of friendship & the devastation of losing it, with an astonishing performance at the center.- Graeme Guttmann, Screen Rant“Close” is truly a directorial tour de force. Dhont knew what he wanted to say and said it with grace, dignity, and depth.- Neely Swanson, Beverly Hills Couriera sensitive examination of the restrictions society places on masculinity, robbing men of intimacy it deems inappropriate. Eden Dambrine… simply gives one of the great child performances committed to film.- Laura Clifford, Reeling ReviewsIt's one of if not the best indie/international film this year!

Re: 2023 Movie Awards: For Your Consideration
Very, very nice movies! I watched some of them, as I am very fond of cinematography. Girl picture was my favorite, for sure. I watched it so many times with my friends. Some day I wish to produce such a good film as these are. I am sure with the knowledge accumulated at my film school in Prague, I have high chances! I need to be motivated to learn more and to fight against the challenges. Furthermore, I know this industry can be harsh, but I am ready to deal with it.
