Tonight the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will award the 2015 Best Picture, yet the academy missed most of these “Deep Culture” Impact films. Will this year’s winner one day join this august company?
One helpful (if imperfect) way to estimate ‘deep culture’ impact is to look for films that have achieved success what at what Hollywood sometimes calls the “double bottom-line.”
By necessity I have developed my own informal (and often intuitive) system for finding worldview-shaping films that you might find interesting as you consider your own choice in films.
