No Justice in Hollywood

I agree. But alas, Hollywood really only nominates from a select pool of favorites. It's less an "awards" show and more just a pre-scripted pat on the back. And this isn't because my favorites don't usually get the recognition and more because you can pretty much guess the winners before half the movies even come out.

I know no will agree with me but I think both For Greater Glory and Andy Garcia should have got nominated for Oscar awards

You are perfectly right. This movie deserved several nominations - for Andy Garcia, for the director, for music, cinematography and costumes... I've seen most of the nomnated movies this year and I really don't understand why this movie was so snubbed. Or maybe I do...?

This movie offends various interests - the extreme Stalin-era left, atheist godless liberals, Catholic hating mason Christians, and Jews who believe they were the only minority ever persecuted for religious reasons. It just wouldn't do to promote any Hollywood movie that takes anything but a cynical, mocking, derisive portrayal of Catholicism.

This was a very poor movie. Simple as that. It didn't deserve any sort of accolades.

It had nothing to do with "left-leaning Hollywood". The film was a very limited summer release and it still bombed (although it was a hit in Mexico).
In spite of a incredible cast and story the film unfortunately fell into a predictable formula and was rather cliche.
Had it been nominated it would have gone up again Lincoln, Zero Dark Thirty, and (winner) Argo.
I know Conservative Catholic foam at the mouth over this movie but any objective viewer will tell you it's just an ok picture.
