Big Golden Arena Winners
(Under construction and always in progress!!!)
This is just my little personal 'project'. One fine day I'd like to see them ALL (sweet dreams).
From Wikipedia (quoting):
"The Golden Arena awards were established in 1955 as the Yugoslav national film awards presented annually at the Pula Film Festival in Pula, Croatia, with the Big Golden Arena for Best Film its main prize.
From 1955 to 1990 the awards were the Yugoslav cinema equivalent of the Academy Awards.
In 1991 the festival was cancelled due to the breakup of Yugoslavia, but then resumed in 1992 as the Croatian film awards festival (thereby excluding films and filmmakers from present-day Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia and Macedonia). It has been held in this format every year since, although no prizes were awarded at the 1994 edition.
The festival's competition program usually includes screenings of all locally produced feature films made in the preceding 12 months (which is made possible due to the local film industry's relatively low output), so everyone involved in making them automatically qualifies for the Golden Arena awards. Therefore there are no Academy Award-style lists of nominees announced prior to the actual awarding ceremony.
The awards are given by a jury of five or six members which is named before each festival edition by the festival's managing board, and it usually consists of prominent filmmakers and film critics."
Winners are listed in chronological order (the year of win at the very bottom of each listed film).
With my humble rates for the ones I've seen.
Notes:
N/S = not seen
Cinema = cinema (big screen) viewing
TV = TV viewing
PC = download
OL = online viewing
VHS = VHS viewing
R = Recommended (8-10/10)
FF = For Fanatics Only (5-7/10)
P = Pass (1-4/10)
