From Norway to New Zealand, the fever of Oscar has spread globally. The nominees for this year’s Oscar have already been declared by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
So are you ready for it? In fact who isn’t? While shooting in Paris, Director David Fincher and actor Brad Pitt came to know that their film, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” has been nominated in 13 categories. Pitt has been nominated in the “Best Actor” category. Though Pitt did not comment, however signs of self satisfaction were clearly visible on his face. The Oscars are considered as the highest honor in the film industry and naturally Brad Pitt was too excited to know that his film has been nominated in 13 categories. While promoting his current film in Paris, Brad said that he does not think about Oscars or any award while doing a film but if a film gets nominated or selected, then it is a bonus for him.
Only time and the jury will be able to tell Brad whether he should smile more or concentrate and try for next year. Now all you need to do is, sit and watch.
