The Academy Awards ceremony may seem to be a lot of shine and shine on the surface, but under the glossy surface a battle of global dimensions is lying in wait for a battle with global dimensions! Or perhaps it is just a competition for the Foreign Language Film Award, which since 2020 was called the International feature films award. On February 27, 2005, at the Kodak theater in Hollywood, the Battle of Royal was fought by Spain, Sweden, France, Germany and South Africa … with Spain appearing as a victor.
Sea of gratitude
Gwyneth Paltrow presented the award to Alejandro AmináBar, director and joint writing (with Mateo Gil) from “The Sea Inside” (“Mar Adentro). Fighting for his right to death.
This award is not awarded to any of the film makers, although the director accepts it on stage. Instead, the country that presents the film to the academy is the winner. This was the first time that Spain has won an Oscar since 2000, when Pedro won the models “everything about my mother”.
As Aminamar said from the theater, “This film depends on a man, despite his desire to die, a lot of life has spread around him. So, the first third of this award belongs to him, wherever he is. Another third part goes, of course, my friend and the producer, Fernando Vera, to the great actors’ team and his crew to focus on this movie from the beginning.
Spain won the Academy Award four times out of 21 nominations; He is the fourth winner of victory, behind Japan (five), France (12) and Italy (14).
All over the world
“As in Paradise,” from Sweden, which was directed and participated in Kay Pollack, it was also nominated. It was a world -famous Mosul that retired to his Swedish hometown only to help the church choir. Sweden last time won the Academy Award in 1983, for the movie “Vanie and Alexander” in Ingmar Bergman.
France also presented a candidate focusing on the choir, which is truly called, “Choir”, directed and directed by Christophe Partier. In it, Pierre is the orchestra connector that returns home after the death of his mother, then his music teacher remembers them. The film was also nominated (as Barratier) for the original song Oscar, for “Look to your Path” (“Vos Sur Ton Chemin”). Barratier wrote words, Bruno Collis composed music. France last time in the 1993 category, with “Indochine” by Régis Warginier.
“The Fall of Germany”, directed by Oliver Hershecel, did not win the Academy Award, but it became at least one scene. The film focuses on Adolf Hitler’s recent days in his hideout in Berlin, and the scene is characterized by Bruno Gans (as Hitler) after the collapse, which is a very strong performance on the Internet. All Oscar victories in United Germany have been since 2000, with the latest in 2023 (“Every Cell to the Western Front”).
“Yesterday,” it was directed by Daril Rodt, like South Africa and was the first trade production in Zulu. In the movie, the title of the title is learning that she suffers from HIV and conflicts to live for a long time so that her child can attend school. South Africa will win the Academy Award following the Gavin Hood “Tsotsi”.
