Hi myte,

Believe it or not the only Oscar that LOTM won was for sound quality(don't know if there were other nominations). None of the actors were nominated..... IMO sometimes it seems people in movieland live on another planet:o)

For comparisons sake, these are the movies that were nominated in '92: Unforgiving(winner),The Crying Game, A Few Good Men, Howards End, Scent of a Woman. I've seen 3 out of the 5, and believe that LOTM was far better entertainment by far. Unforgiving was a horrific, bloody tale.....at least with LOTM, we were taught a history lesson along with experiencing the bloody moments:o)...ann
