Reception
In January 2019, it was nominated for the Best Live Action Short Film at the 91st Academy Awards.[3] Denise Fergus, the mother of James Bulger, stated that she was "disgusted and upset" by the film and its subsequent nomination because the film was made without contacting her family. She had previously circulated a petition to have it removed from Oscar consideration.[2]
