List of Austrian proposals for the Oscar nomination in the category of best international film

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of Austrian proposals for the Oscar nomination in the category of best international film (until 2019 best foreign language film ) includes all films submitted for Austria to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) for the category of best international film .

Of these, two films, Die Fälscher by Stefan Ruzowitzky at the Academy Awards 2008 and Liebe by Michael Haneke at the Academy Awards 2013, were awarded the Oscar for the best foreign language film. With 38 - Even the Vienna was by Wolfgang luck in the Oscar ceremony in 1987 and revenge by Götz Spielmann at the Academy Awards in 2009 were two other films nominated for the Oscar in this category.

Michael Haneke's film Caché, which was submitted for the 2006 Academy Awards , was not admitted because it was not mainly shot in the language of the sending country, but in French.

For the 2010 Academy Awards , Austria originally wanted to submit The White Ribbon - A German Children's Story by Michael Haneke, but the film was ultimately submitted as the German candidate for best foreign language film and received an Oscar nomination in the categories of best foreign language film and best camera .

For the 2017 Oscars , the German-French-Austrian co-production Before the Dawn was initially proposed by the producers for the selection of the German candidate as the best foreign language film. After Germany had nominated the German-Austrian co-production Toni Erdmann instead , Austria announced on September 6, 2016 that it would be sending Vor der Morgenröte into the race. The Austrian contribution to the international Oscar was initially rejected by AMPAS, the reason being the “imbalance of creative participation”. When AMPAS published the full list of nominated titles a few days later, Vor der Morgenröte was listed there.

With the Franco-German-Austrian co-production Happy End , the Association of the Film and Music Industry (FAMA) proposed a film by Michael Haneke as an Austrian contribution for the 2018 Academy Awards for the sixth time. His films were suggested most often, followed by Götz Spielmann with three submissions and Barbara Albert , Robert Dornhelm and Stefan Ruzowitzky with two submissions each.
