I have always thought that the S in 1SO stood for something else. Haven't you made self-deprecating jokes about your acronym in the past ?

Yes. The forum has taught me that my opinions are Soft. A good argument can persuade me.

What two individuals have earned Retro Filmspot nominations in two different years?

NOTE: One of them has only been nominated indirectly. I'm not counting Ensemble Cast.

Yep! Nominated for Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay in 1957 (lost both); and for Best Director again in 1999.

The other is Werner Herzog, who had documentaries nominated in both 1974 and 1999.

What Filmspot-nominated performance is comprised of the least amount of screen time?

(I don't know the answer offhand. But I'm curious what the possibilities might be.)
