Without digging too deep into these shortlists. I didn’t see too many glaring omissions. John Lewis: Good Trouble is about the only documentary I noted missing and My Little Sister also didn’t make it to the foreign language film shortlist. Of course, I may realize what’s missing at a later date, so stay tuned.
