The only film from Italy to win the best international feature Oscar in the 21st century was Sorrentino's 'The Great Beauty' eight years ago. No other has even been shortlisted.
. In the time since, this great hub of cinema has failed to even make the shortlist for the award, to say nothing of landing a nomination.
This is not because Italy has ceased making great films. It’s largely because the process of selecting an Oscar submission is, like most things in the nation, highly political, I’m told by sources close to the process. If Italy wants to please local interests, it can continue to make its picks that way.
