Zack Sharf Denis Villeneuve recently told MovieMaker magazine that he is “deeply pleased” with “Dune” landing 10 Oscar nominations, second only to Jane Campion’s “The Power of the Dog” as the most nominated film at the 94th Academy Awards.
While “Dune” broke into the best picture race and landed nominations in every craft category, Villeneuve himself got shut out of the best director race.
His omission is considered one of the biggest Oscar nomination snubs this year.“Frankly, if you had told me a few months ago that we’d be in the Oscar race, that we’d have that kind of recognition, I would have not believed you.
It’s really moving,” Villeneuve said after MovieMaker lamented over his snub for best director. “If you’re nominated, it’s a beautiful thing…I don’t take things for granted, and I was deeply pleased with what we got.” Villeneuve was widely expected to land in the best director Oscar race after picking up nominations in the category at the Golden Globes, Critics’ Choice Awards and Directors Guild of America Awards.
