As of this morning's post I am predicting TFF films with a total of 35 nominations with another 15 "alternates". Here's the TFF breakdown:
Poor Things (12 noms and one alternate) : Best Picture, Direction, Actress, Supporting Actor (Ruffalo), Adapted Screenplay, Cinematography, Editing, Score, Production Design, Visual Effects, Costumes and Makeup/Hair. The alternate is a second Supporting Actor nomination for Willem Dafoe.
The Zone of Interest (Six noms and one alternate): Best Picture, Direction, International Film, Cinematography, Score and Sound. The alternates is Huller for Adapted Screenplay.
The Holdovers (Five noms and two alternatives): Best Picture, Actor, Supporting Actress, Editing and Original Screenplay. Alternates are for Direction, Supporting Actor.
Anatomy of a Fall (Three noms and one alternate):Best Picture, Actress and Original Screenplay and the alternate is for Editing.
American Symphony (Two noms): Best Doc feature and Song.
Nyad (One nom and one alternate): The nom for Supporting Actress with a Best Actress alternate.
Rustin (One nom and one alternate): The nom for Best Song with an alternate possibility for Best Actor.
Saltburn is an alternate in four categories: Best Actor, Supporting Actress, Original Screenplay and Cinematography.
All of Us Strangers is an alternate in two categories: Best Actor and Adapted Screenplay.
In addition to The Zone of Interest in International Feature, I'm predicting three other TFF films to be nominated in that category: The Taste of Things, The Teachers' Lounge and Fallen Leaves. Totem and Perfect Days could also make it into the category. Were it not for Society of the Snow I'd likely be predicting that all five nominees for International Feature would be TFF films.
In Documentary Feature, in addition to American Symphony, I have Beyond Utopia making it into the list of nominees.
And finally, in the Shorts categories I have three TFF films being nominated as you can see above: Strange Way of Life, The Last Repair Shop and Last Song from Kabul.
In terms of other predictions not TFF films I have Oppenheimer leading the pack with 13 nominations.
Other non-TFF films with double nomination totals predicted: Killers of the Flower Moon with 12 and Barbie with 11. Maestro is now predicted for nine nominations.
Final MTFB Oscar nomination predictions are coming on Monday!
VISITING THE VAULT
Close readers of MTFB know that I keep a file labeled "Future Telluride" on my laptop. As I see films announced that sound like they might have a TFF in their future, I put the article in that folder as a method of keeping track of those films.
Each year I re-visit and cull the films that either did make it to TFF or were released having not made it to Southwest Colorado. I think it's kind of fun to take stock of what was in there that made it to the most recent TFF and when they first went into the folder.
After this year's sorting, I found that I had 11 films that screened in TFF #50 that had been in the folder. Here they are and the date I first saved them for future reference:
The Zone of Interest-July 11, 2018
Occupied City-Jan. 9, 2019
Tuesday-May 19, 2021
Poor Things-May 21, 2021
Nyad- Jan. 20, 2022
The Royal Hotel-April 30, 2022
The Promised Land- May 25, 2022
Fallen Leaves- June 10, 2022
All of Us Strangers- June 30, 2022
Strange Way of Life-July 2, 2022
The Bikeriders-August 5, 2022
