2019-2020 Academy Screeners and other freebies received

The new screeners for the year 2020-21 can be found here.

 Note:  None of these screeners are for sale, so please don't ask!   I provide this list
primarily to indicate which movies the studios are interested in promoting for Oscar consideration, and also as a handy reference guide for other Academy members.  The Academy and the studios expressly forbid the sale, transfer or duplication of these videos, conditions to which I have always gladly adhered and will continue to respect.  I'm grateful to receive these videos for reference purposes; but as far as I am concerned nothing can compare with actually viewing the films on the big screen in theaters.   I would urge you all please to support the industry by doing just that!

To visit Ken Rudolph's Movie Site click here.

This year, the Academy is offering "streaming screeners" to Academy members for watching available "Best Picture" candidates on-line or streaming from the Academy members' web site.  The first 8 films were added on October 30, 2019.  I plan to list them here as they appear.
 

Branches often receive separate mailings.  I'm in the documentary branch.
