Academy Awards 2002
Nominations:Best Original Screenplay along with Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain Gosford Park (winner) Monster's Ball The Royal Tenenbaums Best Editing (Dody Dorn) along with A Beautiful Mind Black Hawk Down (winner) The Fellowship of the Ring Memento Moulin Rouge! JULIAN FELLOWES, winner, Best Screenplay Written Directly for the Screen, for Gosford Park: "I did admire Christopher Nolan's Memento very much this year. It's a fantastic, very clever film that I think is going to beat me in the Oscars. I thought it was very meticulously constructed. In so many films, there's a block or a bridge that you just kind of have to forget about and take. But there were no missing bits in Memento; it's all there, like a carefully constructed necklace. And I love that. It's amazing. (from http://www.wga.org/craft/interviews/awards2002.html) http://www.filmsite.org/ says: [...]Also, writer/director Christopher Nolan's clever, highly inventive, Mobius strip told-in-reverse noir Memento was mostly forgotten (as was Guy Pearce as the tattooed, short-term amnesiac Leonard Shelby). On http://us.imdb.com/RTO/Polls/oscarpoll 59% of the voters say that Memento should win/have won the Oscar for best Original Screenplay and 39% vote for Memento in the best Editing category. So why don't the people who know about movies decide about the awards? |
