The OSCARS ... do you care?
Tags: No Tags available
It´s OSCARs night again, tonight, and this year, I am rather curious, who will win, as there are a couple of favourites of mine in the race (I guess, my two most favourites are MUNICH and George Clooney).
But, with, if I did not make a mistake, some 109 Oscars to be awarded, I will not bore you with my amateurish predictions en detail.
But one fact, I found particularly interesting. Browsing the nominee list, I discovered, that the composer of the original score of MUNICH, John Williams, has already been nominated for an unbelievable 45 times (including this years nominations for MUNICH and MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA)!!!
5 times, he has won ...
But how is that, 45 times nominee!!! Now that is what I call an impressive resumee ... WOW!!
Here´s the list:

So at least, George Clooney got one Oscar for best supporting role in Syriana ... but Spielberg got nothing for Munich .... well, well ... what did I say ;)
