In the first episode of Ricky Gervais' *Extras*, Gervais is playing an extra on a Holocaust movie with Kate Winslet playing a nun in the lead. Gervais starts to brown nose her for being noble taking a Holocaust movie part. Oh, no, she says, that's not why I'm doing it. "I mean, I don't think we need another film about the Holocaust, do we?...We get it. It was grim. Move on. No, I'm doing it because I've noticed that if you do a film about the Holocaust, you're guaranteed an Oscar. I've been nominated four times, never won. The whole world is going, "Why hasn't Winslet won one?" Right, so that's why I'm doing it. Schindler's bloody List. The Pianist. Oscars coming out of their ass."
I guess she got a good plan from Gervais! And it is about time she won.
