Scorsese’s Night

Best Leading Actress Oscar-winner Helen Mirren’s story is quite similar to director Martin Scorsese’s Oscar-related story. The 61-year-old British Actress had been nominated before for two times for an Oscar, but it is only now that she has won. However, this is imcomparable to Scorsese’s seven nominations without any winning. The 8th nomination for an Oscar seems to have been the lucky one. Martin Scorsese has finally won the Best Director Oscar at this year’s Acadamy Awards ceremony.
When he has got on stage Scorsese has joked: „Could you double-check the envelope?” He has added: “So many people over the years have been wishing this for me - strangers. I walk in the street and people say something to me: ‘You should win, you should win.’” And he has won!
