Something interesting for Penélope’s case is that in 2002/2003 a similar thing happened with Almodóvar.

Spain submitted in Best International Feature the movie Mondays In The Sun directed by Fernando León de Aranoa and starring Javier Bardem, when Talk To Her was expected to be submitted by the country. So Mondays In The Sun didn’t get the nomination while Talk To Her got 2 nominations: Best Director and Best Original Screenplay (winning this)

Now in 2021/2022, Spain submitted The Good Boss, directed by Fernando and starring Javier again, while Parallel Mothers was expected to be the submission of Spain. The Good Boss didn’t get the nomination in Best International Feature but Parallel Mothers still got 2 nominations: Best Actress and Best Original Score.

If Penélope wins this year, it would be fun that two Almodóvar movies that Spain didn’t submitted still got some nominations and win something without be in Best International Feature.

Con la diferencia que Talk to Her es una excelente película, en cambio Parallel Mothers es un melodrama mediocre.

Draw whatever conclusions you want from that, but there they are.

Judgement at Nuremberg was nominated for Best Picture.

West Side Story doesn’t deserve to sweep anything. It’s a good film but there are much better films this year. No need to give awards to a remake of an already great film. I even have problems with Ariana winning, since she is the worst spanish speaking on the film and her scenes in spanish are cringy and far from oscar worthy.

Coincido totalmente, su Español es ridículo.

Anthony Hopkins’s performance in “The Father” is miles stronger than any top Best Actor contender this year. Cumberbatch is not even TPOTD’s MVP (Dunst and Smit-McPhee).

The best film of the year. If WSS deserve a special award for choreography, TPOD deserve one for Best subtle characters.
