“The Falls” has also received 11 nominations at the 58th Golden Horse Awards, including Best Feature Film.

台灣導演鍾孟宏的最新作品瀑布,近期被選為2022年奧斯卡最佳外語片的台灣代表,這是鍾孟宏的作品第三度獲選。
文化部指出,瀑布現實的描繪既精準又深刻,也生動得描寫人與人之間的關係。瀑布的故事關於一對母女,因為疫情被隔離在家中,彼此的關係也隨著時間起了微妙的變化。
瀑布評價不俗,已經獲得第58屆金馬獎11項大獎提名,包括最佳劇情片,兩位女主角也皆入圍家女主角提名。
鍾孟宏前兩部代表參獎的作品是2013年的失魂與2019年的陽光普照,但兩部片最終都沒有獲得奧斯卡提名。
Fray原意是「磨損(邊緣)」,例如:Constant rubbing had frayed his shirt cuffs. 不斷的磨擦磨破了他的襯衣袖口。
但也可以引申為「緊張、惱火」,可以是及物或不及物動詞,
例句:
Those screaming children are fraying her nerves. 那些尖叫的孩子折磨著她的神經。
His temper was starting to fray. 她的脾氣開始暴躁
