That's fine. But the award title is still wrong no matter how you look at it.Well a lot of awards seem to do this, give them the award when they have not done anything at the current time to get it. Sometimes its more honoring the director as a whole, not for just one year.
The Oscar is for that year only, doesn't encompass a director's career, and it certainly doesn't have to be his best to win. Just better than the competition.I mean come on Martin's Oscar that he got for The Departed, that movie was no where near his best, and was not worthy of an Oscar....yet to me it was more because the Academy felt he deserved it from the past.
And imo, Departed absolutely murdered everyone in that year.
