The nominees:
AT NIGHT (A-)
An ultra-serious but supremely affecting story about three young women in a cancer ward.
THE MOZART OF PICKPOCKETS (B+)
Two thieves find a young boy who seems interested in joining them in their criminal exploits in this funny comedy.
THE SUBSTITUTE (B+)
A hyperactive and bizarre substitute challenges the way things are run in an Italian high school.
TANGHI ARGENTINI (A-)
An amusing comedy that has its touching moments and some great dancing, and culminates in a truly sweet ending.
THE TONTO WOMAN (D)
Francesco Quinn does his best Zoolander impression as a thief looking to make trouble in this Western. It seems like a prerequisite for this genre for its films to be lengthy, and this film certainly supports that opinion.
Who should win: “At Night” was probably the best of the bunch, but I was so happy with “Tanghi Argentini” that I would love to see that take home a win.
Who will win: By process of elimination, it may actually be Tanghi Argentini. At Night is too serious, The Mozart of Pickpockets too immoral, The Substitute too out there, and The Tonto Woman just sucks.
