одна из сенсаций Оскара этого года, бразильский режиссер Фернандо Мереллес фильма "City of God" и номинант на Оскар в категории "Best Director" оказался поклонником Джексона.
Director Fernando Meirelles (City of God) was interviewed by a brazilian radio network and, among many other things, said that he would vote for Jackson (ROTK) for best achievement in directing if he (Meirelles) were an AMPAS member.

Anyway, here are some highlights of what he said (forgive my bad english, but I'll try to translate it anyway):
- I would vote for him (Peter Jackon) for best director without a doubt. The guy joins emotion, technology, art direction, imagery conception, I mean, I think the guy is just extraordinary, he really deserves it.
