The Big Disappointment : Martin Scorsese loses again
Martin Scorsese, one of America's greatest directors ever loses again at the oscars for best director bringing his record to 0 and 5.
Scorsese directed "The Aviator" a high flying epic about eccentric billionaire Howard Hughes. Leonardo Di Caprio stars as him and he was brilliant thanks to Scorsese's style and vision of what Hughes was thinking when he was processing his ideas about aviation.
Although Clint Eastwood did an exceptional job and Million Dollar Baby is the best film of his career and of the year, I believed that the Academy was going to give in to the pressure and give the long overdue Scorsese a first oscar.
