The Oscars have become such a big deal these days that it's just used as adjective.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When we talk about Oscars, it's almost as a symbol of excellence, and the American public and the worldwide public accept that symbol.
This whole Oscar thing is so political. It's about how much a film grosses, and who's in it, and how well it has been promoted.
An Oscar means a lot of things because it's like the ultimate award for a filmmaker so it feels great. But I think you have to consider awards with some distance and not get obsessed with it. When you're creating you shouldn't think about it.
This great imperialistic world called the United States has made us believe that an Oscar is the most important thing in the world for an actor. But if you think about it for five minutes you realise it can't be.
The Oscars are about the dynamics of that moment, of that season. It reflects what's been going on in the world every year through the movies. And a lot of times, what's popular at the movies is popular because of what's going on in the world at that moment.
I literally don't think about Oscar.
Don't get me wrong: I would not say no to an Oscar!
The poor Oscars - they always get slammed in the press.
When you do a film, all you want is to make the best film possible. You don't think about Oscars. But it's really flattering. Please, bring it on!
To me, an Oscar movie has to have some type of emotional pull.
