I guess the Academy was too afraid to let an indie film win. and these "ok" films won instead: http://www.imdb.com/event/ev0000003/2002 retards...

But anyway I love when Nolan is speaking, I don't know why. He just has the aura around him. Its amazing, he is so gifted.
agree on every single word :thumbup:

Highway robbery right there. Also shocking that Nolan himself wasn't nominated for Director. It is a directorial powerhouse.

The reason he didn't win then was because he was a unknown. If Memento was released in 2010, he would have probably won a bucketload of Oscars.
