 Stephen Daldry - 3 for 3 in Best Director noms
Of the 3 feature length films by Daldry (Billy Elliott, The Hours, The Reader), he has gotten an Oscar nom for all three of them. Congratulations to him for this feat, has this ever been accomplished before in any Oscar branches? We should watch out for him next year as well for The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, which may be the type of "superhero/comic book" film the Oscars are willing to award.

 Re: Stephen Daldry - 3 for 3 in Best Director noms
I don't know if it's been 3/3 before. Interesting fact. As far as Oscar noms, Peter Weir has been nominated 5 times.
Witness Dead Poets Society Green Card The Truman Show Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World
So no, his nomination means nothing as far as nominations/win ratio.

Peter Weir's Green Card screenplay was nominated, but not for his direction...right?
