So no Scorsese again.. I dont say ":((" coz its pretty odd for Academy not to have credited this man for the last 30 years.. and maintaining their 'legacy'...
I was very curious if he would pick it up for Aviator having not won for movies like Tax Driver (just imagine Rocky getting ahead of it!), Raging Bull and Goodfellas... and somehow feeling upbeat after he dint bag it this time too.. and Scorsese remains in the dubious yet great list along with Hitchcock..
Eastwood wins the director and Million Dollar Baby the best movie too!
