is that a narrative movie? I thought it was just a music doc thing

Not a doc but also not a traditional feature. It's more of a visual album but there is a clear narrative (which is more thematic) that runs throughout the film.

You never did add these in the main post btw.

 

Also, what are the criterions for overlooked feature this time? There were more of those last year than non-overlooked ones.

Believe it’s just your own call. I’m doing films under 10k views on letterboxd as my cutoff

Does this have the same deadline? I feel like having the same deadline for the Boffies and the top ten list will depress turnout for both

[The Panda]

Hey everyone, we're going to push the BOFFY deadline back to 2/26 in order to give everyone more opportunity to see major releases.  We know all of the release schedules this year have been wack, which is preventing people from getting a fair chance to view major releases that are eligible such as Nomadland.

 

Our only condition is to please use the time to watch a few movies! 😁

IMPORTANT VOTING ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Because of the relatively limited lineup of films, ties may be extremely likely. Thus, @The Panda and I have implemented a fail safe: In each category, you may select ONE of your nominees to get a "Super Vote." This will not affect general tabulation, but in the event of ties, the nominee with the most "super votes" will break that tie.

 

 

[Jake Gittes]

FYC: Picture, Director, Adapted Screenplay (I think? It was expanded from a short), Ensemble, Supporting Actress, Cinematography, Soundtrack
