Romania Just Picked Its Big Oscar Movie and We Are Ready
- Why Romania picked ‘Fjord’ for the 2027 Oscars
- The movie’s huge win at Cannes
- The icy aesthetic we are obsessed with
We just saw some massive movie news. Romania is officially heading to the 2027 Oscars. They are sending a film called ‘Fjord’ to compete for Best International Feature.
The movie was written and directed by Cristian Mungiu. He is a legend. The country’s selection committee picked it unanimously. Everyone agreed. That rarely happens.
This film is already a winner. It premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. It took home the Palme d’Or. That is the highest honor you can get there.
As art grads, we are in love with the vibe of this film. It has a very specific aesthetic. Think deep blues and misty grays. It looks like a moody painting brought to life.
While we wait for the Oscars, there is plenty of other drama. Have you seen that Orry just stirred up a huge mess with his recent comments? It is wild.
If you need something more upbeat, we have good news. Heidi Klum is back on TV to fill in for Simon Cowell. We love seeing her style on screen.
You might want to get cozy before you watch a long Romanian drama. Luckily, Birkenstock Bostons are finally under $100 right now. We are literally screaming. Go get a pair.
Our Take
We think ‘Fjord’ has a real shot at the gold. The visuals are stunning. It feels honest. Romania knows how to pick a winner that stays with you long after the credits roll.
