For our October update, we’re looking at everything that has moved on to a new stage. There aren’t many at this early stage of the year but we have a few.
Moving to Stage 2
Once all of the preliminary data has been received, a film moves to Stage 2. Here are the five who have done so this month.
Dead Man’s Wire (Stage 2 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
Nouvelle Vague (Stage 2 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere (Stage 2 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
The Testament of Ann Lee (Stage 2 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
The Running Man (Stage 2 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
Moving to Stage 3
There are three films that have moved on to Stage 3. This means the film has released wide.
A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (Stage 3 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
One Battle After Another (Stage 3 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale (Stage 3 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
Moving to Stage 4
If a film has surpassed a month in release, it is eligible for a move to Stage 4. We have three films here.
Highest 2 Lowest (Stage 4 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
The Roses (Stage 4 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
The Bad Guys 2 (Stage 4 of 5; Pending Eligibility)
Moving to Stage 5
This is the final stage. These films have completed their box office runs and are unlikely to have much movement in terms of their critical or audience receptions numbers.
