’Lost’ finds fans at indie awards
LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- Director Sofia Coppola, who emerged from her famous father’s shadow last year with her movie "Lost in Translation," was the toast of the film world on Saturday, as the comedy won top prizes at the Independent Spirit Awards, the arthouse world’s equivalent of the Oscars. "Lost in Translation," Coppola’s second film, won all four categories in which it was nominated: best feature, director, screenplay and male lead (Bill Murray). Both Coppola and Murray will compete for Academy Awards on Sunday, as will the other three main acting winners, South African native Charlize Theron for "Monster," Benin-born Djimon Hounsou for "In America" and Iran’s Shohreh Aghdashloo for "House of Sand and Fog." The Spirit Awards honor films based on such criteria as original, provocative subject matter, budget and the degree of independent financing. The winners were announced during a leisurely luncheon underneath a marquee on Santa Monica Beach, a sharp contrast to the chaotic scene at the Oscars. While both events historically share plenty of nominees, there is little crossover among the winners. Last year, only Michael Moore won both a Spirit Award and an Oscar, for his documentary "Bowling for Columbine." The winner of this year’s Spirit for documentary, "The Fog of War" director Errol Morris, will also vie for an Oscar on Sunday.
