RANT: How Come Donald Sutherland Has Never Won An Oscar?


Video above is a scene from the film Little Murders

Canadian actor Donald Sutherland has been around the industry for, I think, half a century.  He has made significant acting contributions to films such as The Dirty Dozen (1967), MASH (1970), Klute (1971), The Day of the Locust (1975), Fellini's Casanova (1976), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), the Academy Award winning Ordinary People (1980), JFK (1991), Six Degrees of Separation (1993), and Pride and Prejudice (2005)

In some of the films listed above he has been overlooked for Oscar nominations, and I wonder why. Just the scene above should merit the Oscar trophy.
