The Academy has named 15 films advancing to the voting process for Best Documentary Feature. They were chosen from 126 films that qualified for the award, under new rules that required branch members to screen and vote on all the films. This method would seem to favor the most high-profile films, and most of the shortlist films are well-known at this point, but I am happy to see "The Waiting Room" among the nominees. The most surprising omissions include Sundance entries "Queen of Versailles," which may have seemed too entertaining, "Marina Abramovic: The Artist is Present," Kubrick doc "Room 237," and Amy Berg's "West of Memphis," which may have seemed too familiar after three respected "Paradise Lost" films, the last of which was nominated last year. The branch may also have objected to the degree to which producer PeterJackson, who invested in forensic research in order to solve the crime, inserted himself in the film. Surprisingly, Ken Burns' well-reviewed New York Film Critics Circle winner "Central Park Five" did not make the cut, nor did Kevin Macdonald's excellent music doc "Marley." 

The others left out of a dramatically competitive field had won some attention from festivals and doc groups: "Broken Castle," "Jiro Dreams of Sushi," "Kumare," "Women with Cows," "Love Marilyn," "Paul Williams: Still Alive" and "The Movement."sushi grade fish trader joe Five films will be chosen by the Academy's Documentary branch members, and the winner will be announced at the Academy Awards on February 24.yo sushi delivery islington The 15 films are:sushi grade tuna toronto "Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry," Never Sorry LLCjiro dreams of sushi japanese subtitles

During the third Kubaki revolts, he was wounded while traveling and left for dead by his companions in a forest with only some cooked rice in a bag. Muziguchi stumbled upon a freshly dead dog. Driven by hunger and fighting for survival, he cut the dog open and placed small pieces of raw flesh on rice. Back in Kyoto, he replaced the dog meat with fish meat (salmon, tuna and meal) and convinced his fellow monks to taste it. Sushi's popularity spread in Kyoto and soon in the entire medieval Japan.
