    1. >As recounted by The Times: “Weeks before the ceremony, after Oscar voting was closed, she attended a party for the nominees at the home of Paul Haggis, the director of ‘Crash.’ Clint Eastwood was in attendance and Ossana, a fan of ‘Unforgiven,’ was eager to meet him.”

      >“Paul started walking me over and he goes, ‘Diana, I have to tell you, he hasn’t seen your movie.’ And it was like somebody kicked me in the stomach,” Osanna recalled. “That’s when I knew we would not win best picture.”

      >“Brokeback Mountain” infamously lost best picture to “Crash” on Oscar night, despite winning the most best film prizes of awards season beforehand (including at the Golden Globes and BAFTAs). Osanna said homophobia was to blame, adding: “People want to deny that, but what else could it have been? We’d won everything up until then.”

    2. Well yeah, you had multiple old fossils like Ernest Borgnine saying they threw their screeners in the garbage and John Wayne would be rolling over in his grave and all that, so we get the head pat for a “racism is bad mmmkay” movie like Crash

    3. Clint Eastwood will never recover from talking to that empty chair at the RNC.

      Was Eastwood a judge that year? This is the first year I’m hearing that some judges don’t even watch all the films! What the hell, man?! Is it that hard to watch some movies and form a judgement?

    5. He was probably afraid that he would lose testosterone and his manliness would be questioned. Typical.

    6. Why would this guy care if Clint Eastwood saw this movie? What a bizarre and sad thing to latch onto as a success marker.

    7. 20 years ago seems like such a radically different time where even admitting you saw a movie like this would get you weird looks. Not surprised someone of Clint’s generation didn’t even bother to watch it. Things aren’t perfect now but I’m glad this movie is widely regarded as a classic and the true winner in sprit.

      Is someone remaking this movie or something why does it keep getting posted about ?

      If the Oscars would like to do something cool it would be to have a twenty or thirty year award to continue to celebrate the the winners or celebrate the film that surpassed it with longevity
