Showing us the films that are going to be Best Picture players, the American Cinema Editors have selected most of the safe and expected choices. There are no shocking omissions here that I can think of, though The Farewell didn’t seem like the kind of film that would make this list, but that does give the film a bit of a boost going into the Oscars.
