Iraq, Al Gore films in running for Oscars documentary prize

Posted on Wednesday, November 15, 2006 (EST)

Films about Iraq and former US presidential candidate Al Gore's "Inconvenient Truth" are among the final 15 entries for the 2007 Oscars best documentary, organizers said.

Nominations for the 79th Academy Awards will be announced on January 23 ahead of Oscar night on February 25.

I think it is a shoe in to be nominated. And as much as I believe Mr. Gore does not need this award to prove the worth of this great movie, I will absolutely root for it to win simply because the word about this crisis will then hopefully reach even more people regarding taking action.
