Foreign-language Oscar contenders pour in


September 16, 2008 Uli Edel's controversial terrorist drama "Der Baader Meinhof Komplex" joined a growing crowd of foreign-language Oscar hopefuls Tuesday, carrying the banner for Germany amid a rash of new entries. Shot in a stark, realistic style with a cast of unknowns, "Revanche" has been a festival hit, winning several international prizes, including top honors from both the Label of European Cinemas and the International Confederation of Art Cinemas in Berlin this year. In this crowd, Troell is a rare Oscar veteran, with two Oscar nominations on his resume -- best director and adapted screenplay for 1973's "The Emigrants."
