Scene: "Night Colonies," The Year of the Everlasting Storm (84/5)

[Again, this "scene"—a mind-blowing Joe short that's my true favorite film of the year, with Memoria second; it's not online, alas—is actually #6, as The Worst Person in the World's "Is this cheating?" turned out to be missing one vote and got bumped to 5th.]

HISTORY: 

Hamaguchi placed 10th for Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy five days ago.

As noted in yesterday's "nominees" post, Colman placed 4th for The Favourite (2018); she also squeaked in at #20 in Supporting last year for The Father. Lindon placed 12th in Actor for The Measure of a Man (2016). Both Japanese actors are new. 

Hamaguchi's screenplay for Asako I & II (2019, written with Sachiko Tanaka) just made it at #20. (He could have placed three times this year, but Wife of a Spy had few fans.)

Oh, no! "Night Colonies" is now my one that got away when filling out my ballot. Somehow I didn't even think of that as a scene contender despite loving it wildly. It would have put me that much closer to having Apichatpong dominate the scene category.

Ditto, in that I should've given more points to 'Night Colonies' and fewer to the LAST NIGHT IN SOHO scene - which, with hindsight, might've been enough to make it a nominee. Oh well, asterisk.

Right - I never considered “Night Colonies” as a scene, but that was just a failure of imagination. I guess one must either get omnibus or offnibus.

I know the official invite is endless and mostly the same every year but if you look at the scene paragraph you’ll see that I tried to put my thumb on the scale by noting that “Night Colonies” is under 20 minutes.
