Titanic Cruises to 14 Oscar Nominations
It's the one day of the year when Hollywood A-listers and soon to be
A-listers don't mind being roused from their beds at the crack of dawn.
Nominations for the 70th Annual Oscar Awards, the big daddy of film honors,
were announced at 5:40 Tuesday morning, and, as expected, James Cameron's
Titanic led the way. The $200 million epic romance set aboard the doomed
luxury liner captured fourteen nominations, including Best Picture, Best
Director, and Best Actress, tying the record set by All About Eve in 1950.
Coming in with nine apiece, including nods for Best Picture, were Good Will
Hunting and L.A. Confidential. The other nominees for Best Picture are As
Good As It Gets and, in a mild upset, The Full Monty, which beat out Amistad
and The Boxer for a coveted place on the list.
Newcomer Matt Damon (Good Will Hunting) heads the list for Best Actor in a
Lead Role, and his competition is stiff. He's up against veteran stars
Robert Duvall (The Apostle), Peter Fonda (Ulee's Gold), Dustin Hoffman (Wag
the Dog), and Jack Nicholson (As Good As It Gets). Absent from the list:
Leonardo DiCaprio for Titanic, Kevin Kline for In & Out, and Daniel
Day-Lewis for The Boxer.
For Best Actress, previous award-winners dominated, with Helena Bonham
Carter getting the nod for her radiant performance in The Wings of the Dove.
She'll compete against fellow Brits Julie Christie (Afterglow), Judi Dench
(Mrs. Brown), and Kate Winslet (Titanic). The lone American actress in the
category is Helen Hunt, who was singled out for her work as a struggling
single mother dealing with Jack Nicholson's neuroses in As Good As It Gets.
In the supporting categories, there were several surprises, including Robert
Forster's nomination for Jackie Brown. He'll compete with Burt Reynolds not
only for the Oscar, but the title of "comeback king." Both men, once down
but not out, will duke it out with Anthony Hopkins (Amistad), Greg Kinnear
(As Good As It Gets, and Robin Williams (Good Will Hunting).
Nominees for supporting actress included several wild cards, with Minnie
Driver (Good Will Hunting), Joan Cusack (In & Out), and Julianne Moore
(Boogie Nights) battling for the gold statue against Golden Globe winner
(and comeback queen) Kim Basinger (L.A. Confidential) and
eight-seven-year-old Gloria Stuart (Titanic).
In the Best Director category, we can only guess there were some sighs in
the Steven Spielberg household, as Amistad failed to win him a nomination.
Also left out were James L. Brooks (As Good As It Gets) and Jim Sheridan
(The Boxer). Competing for the honor are James Cameron (Titanic), Gus Van
Sant (Good Will Hunting), Atom Egoyan (The Sweet Hereafter), Curtis Hanson
(L.A. Confidential), and, in a surprise appearance, Peter Cattaneo (The Full
Monty).
The Oscars will be presented on March 23.
