Actually, Being John Malkovich and Magnolia were both released in 1999. That was an AMAZING year for movies. Three Kings, The Insider, Election, Boys Don't Cry, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Topsy-Turvy, South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, The Hurricane, Bowfinger, The End of The Affair......terrific movies.

No, they were both released in 1999 and were recognized that year. Tom Cruise's performance in Magnolia was nominated for Best Supporting Actor along with Michael Clarke Duncan (The Green Mile), Michael Caine (The Cider House Rules...he won and jokes that if Cruise had nabbed it, his salary would have gone down), Jude Law (The Talented Mr. Ripley) and Haley Joel Osment for The Sixth Sense. Spike Jonze was nominated for Best Director (lost to Sam Mendes for American Beauty) and Catherine Keener was nominated for supporting actress for her performance in Being John Malkovich but lost to Angelina Jolie, who won for Girl, Interrupted. Samantha Morton (Sweet & Lowdown), Toni Collette (The Sixth Sense) and Chloe Sevigny (Boys Don't Cry) rounded out the nominees.
Both Magnolia and Being John Malkovich were nominated for Original Screenplay but lost to American Beauty. P.T. Anderson and Fiona Apple both looked shocked and dismayed when Magnolia's script came up short.
Now the 1999 Academy Awards WERE held in the year 2000 just as every year's ceremony is held the following year. 2000 in 2001, 2001 in 2002, etc. Is that what you meant? If so, my apologies.

Well, don't feel bad, BC. It's confusing to most people because you often wind up seeing the movies the same year they're honored.
This is because, typically, movies deemed likely Oscar candidates are held up until the end of the year so that they'll still be fresh in the minds of Oscar voters. Then, once a movie gets a lot of nominations, it's likely to stay in theaters well into the Spring (esp. here in L.A. and probably New York, so the Academy voters can see them all).
Often, movies will get a token "qualifying" release for just a week or so, so they can make the Oscar cut and then have their official release sometime during late winter/early spring.
All the more reason to admire El Vez's scholarship. (Don't know how he does it -- is there a place that lists every movie released in a given year? And, year, 1999 and 2000 were pretty outstanding years for movies, now that I look at those lists.)

Here's how it works. Any film released in a a major market during a calender year is considered to be from that year. In order to give a bit of time for campaigning for the Oscar, the ceremony isn't held until somewhere around March. But every film nominated in that ceremony MUST have been first released from January 1 until Dec 31 of the previous year. So any films nominated during the awards ceremony held in March of 2000 were, in fact, 1999 films. (All, not most). And if you'll look at any of the post-Oscar releases of the DVD, the packaging will say the year the film was released, not the year the award was given. For example, Chicago won best picture last time 'round. The award was given in 2003, but the film was released in 2002. On the box it says, Academy Award Winner, Best Picture, 2002.
So, to wrap up. Anything released by Dec. 31 2003 will be eligible for an Oscar next time there is a ceremony. And ONLY films with a 2003 release date will be eligible during that year. If it came out Dec. 31, 2002, it's too late for an award.
None of the above applies to the Grammys, which operate in a completely different fashion, the secret of which is closely guarded by the Illuminati and their minions.

Yeah, that's the ticket
Me, know anything about the Illuminati? Surely you jest! I've barely even heard of the Illuminati, really. I once had a neighbour who claimed to have dated the Illuminati's cousin, but that's really the extent of my so-called knowledge. Did you hear a noise? Why is my phone making clicking sounds? Is anyone there?noiseradio wrote:Hungup, you know too much. Run.
