He stayed away from the glitzy Hollywood ceremony, but Peter Jackson still got to party in Wellington when The Two Towers won two Oscars yesterday.
Nominated for six awards including best picture, it won best visual effects (Jim Rygiel, Joe Letteri, Randall William Cook and Alex Funke) and best sound editing (Michael Hopkins and Ethan Van der Ryn).
Jackson, wearing an unseasonal paint-stained and patched-up ski jacket, cargo pants and sneakers, joined about 900 crew members and their families, who watched live coverage of the Oscars in central Wellington bar The Grand.
The crowd cheered, along with about 300 people at a live broadcast at the capital's Embassy Theatre, when early on The Two Towers got the Oscar for visual effects.
Animation coordinator Bay Raitt, who helped create the creature Gollum, hugged colleagues and his mother. "I'm feeling very good. It's pretty cool to be in a room with a whole bunch of my fellow artists who all worked a lot of hours to make this happen," he said, grinning ear to ear.
"We didn't think we were going to win and suddenly we saw our work up there on screen . . . They all deserved it."
Another Gollum creator, sequence supervisor Greg Butler, was philosophical about The Two Towers not winning more. "In 20 years people will forget Chicago and remember Lord of the Rings despite who won the Oscars. It's that kind of film."
Jackson, who missed out on a best director nomination, is thought to have a chance of winning it next year, once the final The Lord of the Rings film The Return of the King is released.
"I don't think anything's in the bag till people see the movie . . . I really would want any nomination to be based on the merits of what people think about the movie."
Jackson confirmed he stayed away from the Los Angeles ceremony because his American backers feared a terrorist attack could strand him there. "The studio (New Line Cinema) expressed concern if some sort of terrorist incident happened in America that caused the airports to be shut down I could be stranded there," he said.
Jackson is due to shoot or re-shoot several scenes for The Return of the King in a few weeks.
Sixteen crew members nominated for awards attended the ceremony.
