Chapter 904: Best Director_2

This film also held the distinction of garnering the most Oscar nominations for the 89th Academy Awards.

At Davis Studio, everyone gathered together in the conference room.

Thomas said, "It's not much different from what we had anticipated. The nominees for Best Director include Mel Gibson, Denzel Washington, Kenneth Lonergan, and Stephen Frears."

The latter was the director of "Florence Foster Jenkins."

Public Relations Manager Martha Kennett said, "The most aggressive campaigners are Mel Gibson and Denzel Washington, with both of their teams investing millions of dollars."

The latter two, besides the necessary funds for the awards campaign, had influence within the Academy that was several levels below Martin's.
