    I really hope he makes an appearance at the Oscars. I’m not even joking, he gave a genuinely fantastic performance. It was almost uneasily human. Hell, giving him and his trainer Laura an honorary oscar would be so nice

      Apparently he's not allowed because some companies complained that allowing him to attend would 'give Anatomy of a Fall an advantage during the voting window' or some other stupid BS. The pettiness of studio execs never ceases to amaze me.

    Just watched 'Anatomy of a Fall" and I was blown away by that scene where Snoop was sick and dying. I wasn't sure if I was watching an incredible animatronic dog, or if they actually made a real dog very sick, which infuriated me to think about. Literally as soon as the movie was over, I Googled 'Anatomy of a Fall' + dog and saw this link. WHEW! It never crossed my mind that a dog could be trained to do what Messi did in this movie. That dog is truly gifted. Amazing scene.
