Matt Damon: “The Academy Awards Gets It Wrong”
When it comes to honoring films, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences has it all wrong, Oscar-winning actor Matt Damon said in an interview with Parade on Thursday.
“I think that the best way to judge movies is, like, 10 years after they’re released. I think they should actually do the awards that way. I think they should have done the Academy Awards this year for movies from 1998.”
So instead of Slumdog Millionaire, filmgoers should be raving about Good Will Hunting?
Matt went on to say, ”I think it’s better to look at a movie and then step back and look at it again. I don’t think that the awards necessarily get it right. I think they get it wrong more often than they get it right.”
