so far one of my nominees got in, arrival (mani kaul), and another, play (gholam reza ramezani), had an average rating over the threshold but not enough votes overall. so already a more successful year for my noms than i've had in a few years i think!
thanks for all your work, angel

Re: Cannes 2021 Betting Thread
this could be a close contest, given that we all almost agree on what is like to win! hopefully some contrarian ballots also come in
one note, entirely my fault -- the title of the rasoulof film is the seed of the sacred fig (i got it wrong when i first posted the list of nominees)

Re: DtC voting and watching
Highest average rating: lovericekim-4,95 this is the one issue i have with the tabulation (getting voters to rate each individual film is the best system, overall, but it's still not perfect). when one voter gives an average rating of almost 5, really what you're partly measuring when averaging the...

Re: Cannes 2021 Betting Thread
Cannes 2024 starts next week (May 14), so time for our annual Cannes betting contest! The in-competition lineup is intriguing -- it includes the long-awaited Megalopolis (Coppola), a new film by Jacques Audiard who I had forgotten existed (but who has won both the Grand Prix and the Palme d'Or in th...
