This Nov. 12, 2013 image released by Starpix shows director Paolo Sorrentino, left, and Criterion CEO Peter Becker at a private screening of the film, "The Great Beauty," in New York. Sorrentino's Fellini-esque film depicts Rome in all of its decadent glory, with luxurious focus on the city's visual wonders as well as the malaise of some of its inhabitants, a mood that reflects the nation's ongoing economic and political paralysis. It is one of five films nominated for an Academy Award for best foreign picture, with the winner to be presented with an Oscar on Sunday, March 2, 2014. (AP Photo/Starpix, Kristina Bumphrey, file)
