The Academy nominated someone despite their unpopularity and racist remarks?

The academy isn’t representative of what general audiences like.

Ah. Well Mel wasn’t selling that one per se. You could prob tell someone he directed & they’d be surprised.
He wasn’t front & center the same way Christopher Nolan would be or Quentin Tarantino.
So for Hacksaw, I’d argue it turned a nice profit cuz of Andrew Garfield & it just being a solid story.
