Kathryn Bigelow Won Best Director At The 2009 Hollywood Awards
This may mean nothing more than “Kathryn Bigelow was willing to go to the Hollywood Awards,” but I really hope it says she has a shot of taking the Oscar. Mostly because The Hurt Locker is the best movie I’ve seen this year, but it genuinely would be awesome to see a woman take home this trophy. Sofia Coppola (for Lost In Translation), Jane Campion (for The Piano) and Lina Wertmuller (for Seven Beauties) are the only ones to have even been nominated.
