The International Feature Race to the Oscar Shortlist: <\/h1>\n

The 15-title shortlist for the international feature category will be announced Dec. 21, with 92 titles vying for a featured spot ahead of the Oscar voting period that begins Jan. 12. In the past five years, four countries have earned three mentions on the shortlist: Denmark, Germany, Mexico and Russia. If those countries\u2019 past luck with the Academy is an indication of this year\u2019s shortlist, then voters may have a chance to honor Denmark\u2019s Holy Spider, Germany\u2019s All Quiet on the Western Front and Mexico\u2019s Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths. (The Russian Film Academy announced Sept. 26 that it would not submit a film for consideration.)<\/p>\n

Other major contenders this season are Austria\u2019s Corsage (which won actress Vicky Krieps the Un Certain Regard award for best performance at Cannes), Belgium\u2019s Close (winner of the Cannes Grand Prix and selected by the National Board of Review for best international film), Cambodia\u2019s Return to Seoul (selected as best film by the Boston Society of Film Critics), France\u2019s Saint Omer (winner of the Venice International Film Festival\u2019s Silver Lion), Pakistan\u2019s Joyland (winner of the Un Certain Regard Jury Prize at Cannes), Poland\u2019s EO (named best international film by the New York Film Critics Circle and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association) and South Korea\u2019s Decision to Leave (which won Park Chan-wook the prize for best director at Cannes).<\/p>\n

Despite earning a Golden Globe nom for best motion picture, non-English-language, on Dec. 12, one should not expect to see S.S. Rajamouli\u2019s historical action epic RRR on the international feature shortlist. India\u2019s official Oscar submission is director Pan Nalin\u2019s coming-of-age movie Last Film Show, about a young boy who aspires to become a filmmaker. But that doesn\u2019t prevent RRR from being an Oscar contender in other categories, especially for the original song heard in its wildly popular dance-battle sequence, \u201cNaatu Naatu.\u201d<\/p>\n
