Japan has decided to korosu Hirokazu Kore-eda’s “Broker” and instead submit the Cannes-hailed “Plan 75” as its selection for the International Film category. Solid decision as it’s an absolutely fascinating sci-fi movie about aging. If any of you had Broker’s Song Kang-Ho as a Best Actor contender, please, take him off your predictions. The film just isn’t any good and its 73 MC score a tad too generous. I panned the movie at Cannes this past May, writing: So far, there have been twelve countries that have submitted their picks to academy:
Decision to Leave (South Korea)The Quiet Girl (Ireland)A Piece of Sky (Switzerland)EO (Poland)Unseen (Ecuador)Eternal Spring (Canada)All Quiet on the Western Front (Germany)The Employer and the Employee (Uruguay)Goddamned Asura (Taiwan)Plan 75 (Japan)January (Latvia)Birthday Boy (Panama Boy)
