First Double Digit Oscar Sweep Ever

This isn't remotely local politics, but... Candidates are people, too. I will admit to being quite fond of Middle Earth, thus...

LotR just became the first double digit nominee to win everything it was up for. 11 Oscars ties the Tolkien-based epic with Ben Hur and Titanic for total trophy count, but those two both had nominations they did not win (1 for Ben Hur in Adapted Screenplay, 3 for Titanic (Makeup, both Actress catagories). Gigi and The Last Emperor swept with 9 each

We will return to politics with the next post :) tomorrow :)
