It is not time to assess the films nominated for the Oscar 2021 or go reviewing their strengths and weaknesses to determine why the extraordinary ‘The Mauritanian’ (The Mauritanian, 2021), by Kevin Macdonald it is not among those selected. I may not touch, because does not review recent events in American society, and when we say recent, we do not mean the events of 2020. Trump, the Black Lives Matter, the pandemic or the assault on the capitol.
It may be because the gap in the movies with judgment was already filled by Netflix and its funny ‘The Trial of the Chicago 7’ (The Trial of the Chicago 7, 2020) and the political artifacts resonate better echoing the racial struggle with movies more than worthy but with inconsistencies like ‘Judas and the Black Messiah’ (Judas and the Black Messiah, 2021), but simply, after seeing the McDonald’s movie, It is important to review the list of nominees and check their absence.
