The Childhood of Maxim Gorky
Hand in Hand

Landscape in the Mist
The Learning Tree
The Little Kidnappers
The Long Day Closes
Mouchette
My Father's Glory & My Mother's Castle
Pixote
Seven Up - How can we ignore the Up series?
Smash Palace
A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

With the possible exception of Hand in Hand (which I saw on the old Kukla, Fran, and Ollie Show), these are not obscure films and most are quite easy to find.

How many voting days are left?

I'm planning to give unseens to Mouchette and Shoe Shine (if needed). Landscape in the Mist is a likely (alas, no one on the public thread has supported it).

I can give a seen to "Tree" -- and probably will now that someone made a public presentation on its behalf.

Mon Oncle Antoine already has my vote.

With my unseen vote, Tree just needs your vote to make the core list, kerpan.

As for Mon Oncle Antoine, it was my top choice for alternate for two days now, so I'm glad DFC finally tipped it in.

Since Antoine is in -- you've still got one vote.

On both days, Antoine was down as my alternate -- in case either of my first two choices got bumped. Now The Long Day Closes will probably move up to favored alternate status.

If they're still open tomorrow, I'll pick up Shoe Shine and Kes

Shoe Shine should go over the top when I vote for it tonight (doesn't it have 2 votes).
