Ahead of the Oscars ceremony on February 25, 2007, the following 15 films have made it to the Best Documentary Shortlist. Only 5 will make it all the way to the end, but all 15 titles belong to a filmmaker’s collection.
Here are the titles to watch out for:
Blindsight — Can Mr. Smith Get to Washington Anymore? — Deliver Us from Evil — The Ground Truth — An Inconvenient Truth — Iraq in Fragments — Jesus Camp — Jonestown: The Life and Death of People’s Temple — My Country, My Country — Shut Up & Sing — Sisters in Law — Storm of Emotions — The Trials of Darryl Hunt — An Unreasonable Man — The War Tapes
Much of the shortlist is made up of hard-hitting features on key political issues. James Longley’s haunting “Iraq in Fragments” looks at life on the ground for Iraqi people as they come to terms with American-led occupation, economic hardships and the grinding reality of post-Saddam Iraq.
Deborah Scranton’s compassionate film “The War Tapes” uses material recorded on camcorder by American soldiers, and takes the intimacy that can be achieved in the documentary genre to another level. Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” outlines a global catastophy if global warming is left unaddressed, and Kim Longinotto’s powerful tale of two African judges makes you believe that there is hope for Africa.
Nominations for the 79th Academy Awards will be announced on Tuesday, January 23, 2007, in the Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater. http://www.oscars.org/
