ANDREW COOPER/COLUMBIA PICTURES

Quentin Tarantino’s ninth feature film, Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, won 10 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (for Leonardo DiCaprio), Best Supporting Actor (Brad Pit), and Best Original Screenplay, It could be expected that a major player will be Tarantino's latest masterpiece at the Academy Awards this year.

But did you realize that Tarantino moved one step closer towards making Hollywood HISTORY this morning?

Your questions can be answered here. For all of his strengths as a filmmaker, Quentin Tarantino seems to take the most pride in his abilities as an original screenwriter. His first Oscar came in 1995, for co-writing Pulp Fiction which was considered classic film and got high acclaimed by film critics. In 2010 he was nominated for Inglourious Basterds in 2010, it took 3 years for Tarantino to win his second Best Original Screenplay Oscar.

That win put Tarantino in rarified air. Only four other writers including Woody Allen, Charles Brackett, Billy Wilder and Paddy Chayefsky share the distinction of having two or more Oscars for original screenwriting.. And only Allen has three wins under his belt with Best Original Screenplay Oscars for Annie Hall, Hannah and Her Sisters, and Midnight in Paris.

Is this the year that Quentin Tarantino joins in the coveted three-win club with Woody Allen?

It will be impressive for numerous reasons if Quentin Tarantino joins in the coveted three-win club with Woody Allen. For starters, Woody Allen has received a record-setting 16 nominations in the Academy’s Original Screenplay category, winning it three times. Tarantino could make his fourth attempt third to potentially get his third win . He discussed his screenwriting process during his recent, two-hour conversation with our ReelBlend podcast.

It has something to do with their age. When Allen was 77 years old, he received his third screenwriting Oscar for Midnight in Paris in 2012. And he didn’t even show up to accept the Academy Award in person! On the other hand, if Quentin Tarantino win the Best Original Screenplay Oscar for Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, he would have collected his historic third trophy at the age of 56.

So far, Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood is on the right track. It has notched Screenplay wins at the Golden Globes and Critics' Choice (where it also took home Best Picture at the end of the evening), while also being nominated by the BAFTAs and countless regional critics’ organizations. The number of momentum for the movie which Sony can dial into and continue to push Tarantino for this potentially historic screenplay win (without taking their eyes off of the larger prizes of Picture and Director, both of which Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood certainly deserves) is pretty enough. which would you like to see Quentin Tarantino claim at the Academy Awards ceremony on February 9, 2020 if we had to choose just one,? They’ll all be considered historic. All three would be monumental.
