Because of his remarkable career, people frequently believe that Samuel L. Jackson has won an Oscar, but in fact, he has only received one nomination.
Jackson may receive an Oscar nod for his next film, The Piano Lesson, but the Pulp Fiction star thinks it would just be an honor if he wins this time.
“We’ve been in the business long enough to know that, you know, the people who go, ‘Well, it’s just an honor to be nominated,'” Jackson stated in an interview with AP. No, it isn’t. Winning is an honor.
“You know, you get nominated, folks go,'” he added. Yes, indeed, I do recall that. You know, most people forget. It’s usually a competition you didn’t enter voluntarily.
