Is this only for nominations? If not, FLY is fielding suggestions of things to watch before submitting a personal ballot. I've got a running list of all 2019 thing I've watched thus far on Letterboxd, so just let me know and I'll try to fit in the must sees before my ballot.

Good catch, logged it but must have forgotten to add it to the list, I definitely watched that one as part of my prep. Don't think it'll get any noms from me though, unfortunately.

The spreadsheet has been tirelessly updated. Apologies for falling so far behind, but we are ready for awards season now!

Overlooked is not a category one can campaign for, it's a make-up category pixote creates out of films that get close but fail in multiple categories.

That being said, 3 Faces certainly has been overlooked, it's another really strong outing by Panahi.

I just saw it in the FAQ list of nomination categories so I thought I could nominate something for it.

1917
Picture
Director
Original Screenplay
Best Actor - George MacKay
Best Sound
Best Cinematography
Best Art Direction
Best Shot - Flares in the Night

Best Scene (Dramatic):
There will need to be a side discussion because people will have different favorite scenes, which are all great in their own way.
For now, I will give a non-spoiler list of ones I would consider:
German Tunnel
Dogfight
Song
Final Shot
