Hmmm... I'm not so sure given the makeup of the special committee.<br /><br />I've actually been wondering if Taiwan got in because of the general voters and A Separation needed an Executive Committee save. <br /><br />Either way, I'm predicting history to be made with Germany's exclusion into the final five. My nominees for now: A Separation, In Darkness, Pina, Monsieur Lazhar, Footnote.

(Turkey),I was sure it'll be the 1st choice of Elite Committe (actually,first is "A Seperation" (but I was pretty sure that it'll be in anyway).<br /><br />Never mind...My predicition for nomination:<br />1.Iran<br />2.Poland<br />3.Israel (I cross my fingers)<br />4.Canada<br />5.Morocco <br />6.Germany<br />7.Denmark<br />8.Belgium (where did you hear about the buzz?And BTW,I thought that it was pretty good)<br />9.TaiwanSpartakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02440700196844950543noreply@blogger.com
