"I am simple, complex, generous, selfish, unattractive, beautiful, lazy, and driven." - Barbra Streisand, born April 24, 1942. #BarbraStreisand
BEST VISUAL EFFECTS 1996: Aliens, dragons and Helen Hunt's forehead...such majestic and powerful effects. Personally, I was most impressed with the work on Twister, though as boring as I found Dragonheart it was at the time pretty state of the art. The winner was also the year's biggest hit, Roland Emmerich's updating of War of the Worlds as the bloated and overlong INDEPENDENCE DAY, which earned Oscars for VOLKER ENGEL, DOUGLAS SMITH, CLAY PINNEY and JOSEPH VISKOCIL, and also turned Will Smith into an A-list movie star. Pinney also won a Sci-Tech award in 2013 and was nominated for Backdraft in 1991.
