NEWS -- The DOCUMENTARY FEATURE Shortlist

The field has been narrowed down to 15, and 5 films will be chosen as the nominees from these finalists. A few noticeable films missing, particularly "Anvil! The Story of Anvil", "Capitalism: A Love Story", "It Might Get Loud", and "Tyson".

The finalists are:

The Beaches of Agnes
Burma VJ
The Cove
Every Little Step
Facing Ali
Food, Inc.
Garbage Dreams
Living in Emergency: Stories of Doctors without Borders
The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers
Mugabe and the White African
Sergio
Soundtrack for a Revolution
Under Our Skin
Valentino: The Last Emperor
Which Way Home

This list puts The Cove, Every Little Step, and Food Inc. soundly in the driver seat for the Oscar this year. I thought all 3 were fantastic and all worthy.
