ooh a late vote, could Myra have won it for Apursansar? i’ll check the scores
ooh a late vote, could Myra have won it for Apursansar? i’ll check the scores. Amended for Ayush’s vote, which helps India further
Paris Texas 10 Mahanagar 8
Fitzcarraldo 7 Bhumika 10
The Marriage of Maria Braun 8 And Quiet Rolls the Dawn 9
a 2 vote edge again, it was a tie before Myra’s vote. Still over 1/4 hr left of nail-biting! Will there be one more voter to swing it back?
wow,Paris, Texas gets more love than Herzog and Fassbinder masterpieces?
Ayush voted after i started counting so scores amended above. Paris Texas does have a pretty sizeable following, and unanimous winner at Cannes, whereas Fitzcarraldo isn’t the most popular Herzog film
MATCH OVER!
Congratulations for India . It is now where it belongs.
And now a press conference with all the four semi final managers.
All of them deserve a 5 years contract.
Well, a great day for the country of my dad’s birth. And no European or anglophone country left, what a turn up!
Commiserations to Rumplesink in a real nail-biter, swung in the last 1/2 hour. Thanks for everything you’ve done in this tournament Rumplesink
Yes, many thanks to Rumplesink who did a great job as a double-manager. This one has been one of the most exciting matches so far.
Yehey, I wasn’t expecting India to win over Germany based on the initial scores. But that was a really close one.
They are all happy, as well.
The husband just read about India´s victory in the newspaper.
That reminds me in the last semi final at the last soccer world championship 2006 Germany against Italy. Italy was far the better team and in the last two minutes they did two goals.
>I foresee an India victory.
Dan’s always right!
Congrats to India! :)
Dan and his crystal balls
no on ever reminds me again of the 2006 World Cup where 3 out of 4 semi-finals teams were amidst the worst teams in the whole Cup! (especially Italy!!!!)
I was supposed to come back and vote after watching Maria Braun…. I could not log back in despite Kenji’s 17 hrs reminder.
If India lost because of my 3 votes that were not cast, I would be kicking myself.
But what a relief to see Indian win.
Apursansar, my man, you are awesome!!
Thank you Filmy A, I´m also happy that our beloved India managed to qualify for the 1/2 finals. I know that you consider “Bhumika” as the best film by Shyam Benegal and will be glad that it got some appreciation on here, as well as the wonderful Sen film “Ek Din Pratidin”. Now I´m preparing my selection for India´s most difficult match against an unpredictable Team Africa, and playing against Blue K is like a high-class chess game. I have no clue how that one may turn out, but can almost predict that it´s going to as interesting as this one.
Apu, where is that colorful WC bracket graphic that I think Myra made? Do you have a link, can’t find it. Thank You
I´m not quite sure if you mean the bracket graphic that was provided by the Auteurs staff. You can find that one here.
ah yes that’s the one – oooh and it’s updated too. Mahalo!
