'Brokeback Mountain' Writer Knew They Weren’t Going to Win Best Picture After Meeting Clint Eastwood
Brokeback Mountainco-writer Diana Ossana predicted that the iconic film wouldn't win Best Picture after an encounter with Clint Eastwood at a party before the awards show. Diana Ossana did win the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for Brokeback Mountain alongside Larry McMurtry, which tells the story of two cowboys in the 1960s who begin a secret love affair that became a cultural touchstone when it hit theaters in December 2005. The film was a powerhouse and was the odds-on favorite to win Best Picture. However, in one of the biggest and most baffling upsets in Oscar history, Crash took home Best Picture.
