Arthouse Tuesday is also Oscar Tuesday this week, as we catch up with a couple of Academy Award nominees.
First, we review "Flow," which is up for best animated feature and best international feature. This delicate, wordless film from Latvian director Gints Zilbalodis follows a cat, a dog and various other creatures as they team up to survive after a catastrophic flood. In theaters and available for rental.
Plus, we discuss "September 5," a gripping drama that recounts the hostage crisis that rocked the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich. It recreates how the ABC Sports team responded to this breaking news with no real blueprint for covering a live terrorist attack. It's been nominated for best original screenplay. Available for rental and on DVD/Blu-ray.
Thanks for hanging out with us during this midweek pop-in! And mark your calendar for next Tuesday, Feb. 25 at Noon Pacific, when we'll do our annual Oscar Predictions Livestream at our YouTube channel.
