And the Oscar goes to...


Recently the international films that are up for nomination for an Oscar were revealed. Each country submits one film to the Academy, and from those films five are chosen as the best, and as we all know, one wins. This year Spain chose to submit a film based on the Spanish Civil War, Los Girasoles Ciegos (from a novel of the same name).

Mexico chose the film Arráncame la vida, also based on a novel.

And Colombia submitted the film, Perro come Perro, about, yes, the business of narcotics.



Enjoy the trailers...and hopefully the films too, even if they don't make it into the final cut of the Oscar nominations.
