2023 Oscar Predictions: Best Documentary Short
Category Commentary: This is an eclectic mix of short films in the documentary short race.
The New Yorker’s “nuisance bear” is the most acclaimed, making multiple stops at the festival and picking up various trophies.
Frank Chee’s “38 at the Garden,” looking at the cultural impact of Jeremy Lin’s season with the New York Knicks, is a favorite in the race, especially with Oscar-winner Trayvon Free (“Two Distant Strangers”) on board as one of the producers.
Heartwarming stories like “Holding Moses” feature heavily, focusing on a woman dealing with grief and trying to connect with her disabled son. “How Do You Measure a Year” by Jay Rosenblatt, who himself filmed his daughter from ages two to 18, asking her daughter – What do you dream about? What are you afraid of? What do you think about our relationship? If you are a family person, the movie will definitely strike a chord.
You can never count out Netflix with a pair of movies in the discussion — Karthik Gonsalves’ “The Elephant Whisperers” and Anne Alvergue and Debra McClutchy’s “The Martha Mitchell Effect.”
