JERUSALEM — The budgets are bare-bones and the talent pool is limited, but Israel has emerged as a surprising powerhouse in the foreign film industry. It's an indication to the renaissance of Israeli cinema, which has grown from a fledgling industry with poor cinematography and low box office sales to a darling of world film festivals. That's in spite — or perhaps because — of the country's troubled international reputation, due to its lengthy conflict with the Arab world. The Israeli film "Footnote," up for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film this year, is Israel's fourth such nomination in the past five years, giving Israel more nominations during that period than any other country. "Ajiami," the 2010 nominee, centers on Arab-Jewish tensions in a violence-ridden neighborhood near Tel Aviv. This year's nomination went to an Israeli film featuring a more internal conflict — two professors of Talmud, a father and son, dueling for academic prestige and a coveted national prize. "It's a badge of honor for Israel," said Moshe Edery, producer of "Footnote," at a news conference after the Oscar nomination. "It's Israel's best business card around the world, especially these days." MONDAY, JANUARY 30, 2012 Israeli cinema was long an embarrassment. Cheap comic melodramas were the norm in the 1960s and 1970s. Called "borekas films" — the Israeli equivalent of spaghetti Westerns — they dealt with ethnic stereotypes of European and Middle Eastern Jews. 944 Massachusetts Street 6 3 2 7 8 2 1 5 9 6 3 7 5 1 9 2 1 5 3 8 1 4 2 3 9 2 4 1 3 2 4 8 2 9 1 7 8 7 9 1 1 SUDOKU Difficulty Level ★ KITTY KORNER PAGE 4 785. 832.8228 1/30 ABBA releases first track in 18 years STOCKHOLM — Mamma Mia, here they go again.
