The Big Picture:
Paul Haggis

Career & Biographical Notes:
  • He won Best Original Screenplay for Crash, which won Best Picture, but he did not win Best Director for it. Even Ang Lee is confused by this.
  • Haggis is the only person ever to write consecutive Best Picture winners with Million Dollar Baby claiming the big prize the year before Crash.
  • Also nominated for Best Screenplay three consecutive years for Crash, Million Dollar Baby and Letters from Iwo Jima. Folks, he's pretty good.
  • Is so sick of sitting through awards ceremonies that he's thinking of taking on a couple of Uwe Boll projects to stay off the banquet circuit for a while.
