The 8th Annual 20/20 Winners Announced
Honoring the Films of 1996
FARGO leaves THE ENGLISH PATIENT in the cold
|
|
THE ENGLISH PATIENT went home with 9 Oscars two decades ago, but in hindsight the Syndicate turned a cold shoulder to that film and awarded FARGO with 5 20/20 Awards (also known as the ‘Felix’) including Best Picture, Director, Actress, Supporting Actor and Original Screenplay. TRAINSPOTTING and THE ENGLISH PATIENT each nabbed 3 trophies. This is the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Felix Award for the Coen Brothers.
Titles with an asterisk* denote that this work previously won an Oscar. This year we have 7 recipients of the coveted Oscar/Felix combo, also known as "The Odd Couple".

The 20/20 Awards views films through the perspective of time and annually re-evaluates films from 20 years prior. Benefiting from hindsight, a voting body of film industry professionals elects new and/or previous nominees. Then we host a live awards ceremony designed to both honor and offer new analytical perspectives on the impact of the 20 year old films, past cinema in general, and its influence on our present culture. It is our hope this fresh analytical method brings a new voice to the films of the past.
If you are a film industry professional and are interested in becoming a voting member please contact us through our website www.2020awards.org to see if you qualify. Membership is free.
