The AFI announced its annual list of the Top 10 American-made movies of the year on Monday and seven of its choices — “Da 5 Bloods,” “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” “Mank,” “Minari,” “Nomadland,” “One Night in Miami” and “The Trial of the Chicago 7,” — number among our 10 frontrunners for Best Picture at the Oscars. One of our leading Academy Awards contenders — “The Father” — was ineligible because the American Film Institute only considers homegrown films.
The AFI list is rounded out by “Sound of Metal,” “Soul” and the late entry “Judas and the Black Messiah.” All three of these films sit just outside of our top 10 list of likeliest nominees for Best Picture at the Oscars.
Two of our other top 10 contenders for Best Picture — “News of the World” and “Promising Young Woman” — were snubbed by the dozen or so tastemakers who make up this jury.
