For the academy to discriminate against a polylingual, mostly dead language film, is the height of intolerance. It didn't meet the criteria. It's not intolerant, it's the rules. Movies don't have to win Oscars to be popular movies, usually the Oscar movies are boring.

Another point they need to consider: only the top 5 vote getters in the preliminary voting qualify for the final ballot. For all we know, "Passion" could have made the top 10 in the preliminary voting.
