Odds to Win Best Foreign Film 2017 Oscars: The Salesman, Toni Erdmann

The odds to win Best Foreign Film at this Sunday’s Oscars had The Salesman and Toni Erdmann in a tight heat.

Toni Erdmann -140 pays US$10 for every US$14 bet with the $14 refunded and a $10 profit realized should this film win.

This German-Austrian comedy-drama centers on a reluctant woman (Sandra Hüller) having to spend time with her estranged father (Peter Simonischek) when he comes for a surprise visit.

The Salesman – Pays near EVEN odds.

From Iran comes The Salesman, about a damaged old Tehran apartment and a young couple forced to move into a new apartment. Eventually, an incident linked to the previous tenant of their new home dramatically changes the couple's life.

A Man Called Ove – Pays US$80 for every US$10 bet.

This Swedish film is based on the novel of the same name about a man who comes across as a sour old neighbor but behind the surface is a sad story with some catty new neighbors befriending Ove.

Land of Mine – Odds have shortened on this film, now promising a payout of $33 for every US$10 bet.

A group of German POWs are forced to dig up millions of land mines with their bare hands in this German-Danish film nominated for the Best Foreign Film of the 2017 Oscars.

 Tanna – Pays $500 for every $10 bet. 

Australian-Vanuatuan film set on the island of Tanna in the South Pacific, depicting the true story of a couple who decided to marry for love, rather than obey their parents’ wishes.
