All the Beauty and the Bloodshed, My Name Is Alfred Hitchcock, and Sidney are three that instantly come to mind.

The only documentary I’m familiar with this year is What Is a Woman?, and there’s no way that one’s getting nominated (unless they want to open a HUGE can of worms).

All That Breathes
The Janes
Riotsville, USA
Elizabeth
The Exiles
The Territory
Aftershock

None of the frontrunners are particularly interesting subjects this year. In the last few years it’s been such an exciting category both in subject and presentation, one I have looked forward to a lot. 🤷‍♀️

Here for the comedies
