Documentary Shortlists 98th Oscars

from Doc Talk: A Deadline and Nō Studios Podcast Hosted by Deadline Hollywood

Hosts John Ridley and Matt Carey dissect the documentary shortlists for the 98th Academy Awards. There were major snubs (a NatGeo darling and a celebrity-oriented HBO doc) — and surprising inclusions (numerous films without U.S. distribution). Oscar winner Ridley (12 Years a Slave) gets into the documentaries that should have made the cut but didn't.
