63 movies presented for Oscar
Oscar organizers Thursday said they received entrants from 63 countries for this year's foreign language film award, including a first-time submission from New Zealand called "The Orator."
Among some of the more talked about foreign language titles already in 2011 are Polish entry "In Darkness," a Holocaust drama that played well at September's Toronto International Film Festival, and Spain's "Black Bread," which earlier this year won nine of its home country's top awards, the "Goyas."
The motion picture academy will narrow the list of 63 films to five nominees that will be named on January 24. The Oscars take place on February 26, at a gala ceremony in Los Angeles, the Reuters reports.
