In recent years, impactful and timely films have taken the Oscar for the best documentary feature: No other land Last year; 20 while the Marribalbal place of Death; the previous year, and Navalnie in 2023.
Will it be another urgent, political or the theme of war that wins the prize when the next Academy prizes take place? Or perhaps it will be a film whose social importation is delivered with a rhythmic rhythm, like the winner of 2022 Summer of the soul? It is early to discuss Oscar candidates – but not too early, at least in the collective wisdom of John Ridley and Matt Carey, hosts from the Deadline Podcast Doc Talk. In the episode of today, we dive into the place where the others fear to jump, joined by the journalist and film critic Lauren Wissot, editor -in -chief of the editor -in -chief of chief of chief of chief Filmmaker Magazine and Documentary review.
Two recent Oscar winners emerged as early contenders: MSTYSLAV Chernov, the 20 while the Marribalbal place of Death; Director who returns with 2000 meters in Andriivkaand Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson, who follows Summer of the soul with Sneaky lives! (aka the burden of black genius). Investigative journalist Christo Grosev, one of the heroes of Navalniemight take into account the Oscar breed as a goal of AntidoteThe documentary produced by James Jones who was acquired by Frontline.
Brittany Shine documentary SeedsAlthough he has not yet nailed distribution, has already won numerous prizes. The perfect neighborThe geeta gandbhir film acquired by Netflix will make a solid offer. Ridley and Wissot predict a healthy life for Life afterReid Davenport’s second feature film.
A surprised blow about an extremely popular artist who fell spectacularly from grace is to gain ground. The same goes for a new vision of the dynamics of Israeli Palestinian relations, and a film on a “person” who took one of the most powerful leaders in the world. And we discuss the award potential for a shoot in China where you can hire someone to break a business, and a documentary in which right -wing religious ideologists become a disturbing political force.
We also voted for the films that we ardently want to see in the Oscar race, including one on a renowned filmmaker with a disturbing Nazi past.
It is on the new episode of Doc Talk, organized by the winner of Oscar Ridley (12 years of slave,, Shirley) and Carey, document editor of Deadline. The Pod is a production of Deadline and Ridley’s Nō Studios.
