Which is why I go by the earlier of either the N.Y. or L.A. release date.

The Oscars remedied he situation in recent years by making a film that is nominated for a Foreign Film Oscar n one year ineligible the following year. I'm not sure but this may also extend to submitted films that don't actually get nominated.

I am just mixed up with the whole Oscars system of nominating a film in the foreign film category one year, and have it's actors and screenwriters nominated the other. That's the case with 'Madame Rosa', It's nominated for Foreign film at the 1977 Oscars but Signoret was eligible the following year. The same thing with "Day for Night", Sundays and Cybele" and so many other films. What about "I Am Cuba"? Produced in 1964 and shown in the U.S. 30 years later. What would be the use of nominating it in my 1995 awards? In my awards i find it ridiculous to nominate the same film in 2 different years. And on top of that there's also the case of "Limelight", "Rules of the Games" and numerous films that were released in U.S. many years after their production year. Then there's one of my favourite films "The Fire Within". Produced in 1963, shown at the NY festival in 1964 and released in U.S. IN 1966. All these may sound ridiculous, but as i am currently trying to organize the lists of my best of the year, i am very confused.

I found Tom Berenger's brief performance the male supporting standout in Looking for Mr. Goodbar.

There is no comparison. Berenger´s performance is riveting.

I am glad you liked it.

Cocoyannis claims that a secretary at the Academy who was a fan of the film, revealed him that he lost the Foreign Language Oscar for 1 vote. I really find it very hard to imagine that a secretary of the Academy would ever reveal such things to a nominee.

I like Papas in this role, however i have a problem with Kostas Kazakos who plays Agamenonas. He spoils the film for me. I also love Tatiana Papamoschou who is a very good friend of mine. She has told me that with this film she gained many wonderful experiences (premieres in Cannes and U.S.A.), some really bad ones during filming (it was hewr first film without any prior acting experience) and a Canadian stalker who came to Greece because he was in love with her, and stayed here for months.

Eric, I highly praise your choice of adding Suspiria on that list. It's one of my favorite horror films and very underrated. Probably one of the best D.P. jobs out there by Lucianno Tavoli.
