"The Seven Samurai" was nominated in 1957 for Best Art-Direction, Set-Decoration, Black-and-White, losing to "Somebody Up There Likes Me" (1956), and for Best Costume Design, Black-and-White, losing to "The Solid Gold Cadillac" (1956). In the same Awards year, there was a five nominee category for Best Foreign Language Film. However, "La Strada" (1954, but released in the U.S. in 1956) won, and "The Seven Samurai" wasn't nominated.Ryan Whitneynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-29496055967856468192016-09-21T16:14:47.586-05:002016-09-21T16:14:47.586-05:0013 Assassins is really more of a take on the 47 Ro...13 Assassins is really more of a take on the 47 Ronin story than it is Seven Samurai. benpetersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02680256171903996080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-12995587279060076392016-09-21T15:44:40.976-05:002016-09-21T15:44:40.976-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.benpetersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02680256171903996080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-73076741955326542902016-09-21T13:10:58.932-05:002016-09-21T13:10:58.932-05:00A very friendly growl...A very friendly growl...JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17076030814908114779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-6000258297137677482016-09-21T10:59:43.327-05:002016-09-21T10:59:43.327-05:00JB - With Benicio Del Toro, was it like a friendly...JB - With Benicio Del Toro, was it like a friendly growl or a "don't bother me" growl?<br />Adam Riskehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01165600746796326821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-37404083530604755092016-09-21T07:38:56.823-05:002016-09-21T07:38:56.823-05:00Yep, from the "List of Academy Award winners ...Yep, from the "List of Academy Award winners and nominees for Best Foreign Language Film" Wikipedia page:<br /><br />"Between 1947 and 1955, the Academy presented Special/Honorary Awards to the best foreign language films released in the United States.[2] These awards, however, were not handed out on a regular basis (no award was given in 1953), and were not competitive since there were no nominees but simply one winning film per year."John Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08810774557887719483noreply@blogger.com
