I think it was a 'foreign film' last year that was not entered. Since they didnt enter as a foreign film last year, its American release this year was counted as your average film. Thats how it works, as far as I know. Same happened with Amelie I believe.

thats stupid tho because the award is for foreign language, not foreign film

Actually think it was elligable for nomination last year but wasn't for whatever reason.
