I looked it up (well, Dima did, on Facebook) and the last time a film won Best Picture without winning anything else was "Mutiny on the Bounty". _________________Buy my books! http://michaelaventrella.com

Re: 2013 Contenders Discussion Not daily. And I only read the interesting articles.
You can't argue his point, though.

Re: 2013 Contenders Discussion Grantland has a lot of downfalls. But most of their stuff is aces and they do a lot of things other major sites can't do.

Re: 2013 Contenders Discussion You should read The Masked Man, Magnus. He, Barnwell and Jalen Rose also have great pods.

Re: 2013 Contenders Discussion I'm wondering, could Gravity be the BP nominee that collects the most awards while missing the grand prize? What film holds the record for this?
VFX, both sound awards, score, cinematography, director, maybe editing too. That'd be 6-7 in the bag!

Re: 2013 Contenders Discussion Cabaret holds the record. It won:
Best Director
Best Actress
Best Supporting Actor
Best Art Direction
Best Cinematography
Best Editing
Best Score
Best Sound
(8)
It lost:
Best Picture (to The Godfather)
Best Adapted Screenplay (ditto)
Gravity will come mighty close, but I believe it will lose three of the ten awards for which it is nominated: Best Picture, Best Actress, and Best Production Design.
