VIGGO MORTENSEN - MORTENSEN RULES OUT CROSSING OSCAR PICKET LINE
Oscar nominee VIGGO MORTENSEN will refuse to cross picket lines to attend the Academy Awards, if striking writers protest at next month's (Feb08) Oscars. Mortensen, who on Tuesday (22Jan08) received a Best Actor nomination for his performance in Eastern Promises, desperately wants to attend Hollywood's premier awards show on 24 February, but not if Writers Guild Of America members are still on strike. He says, "If there's a strike I will not go, but I have a feeling they'll solve it. I hope they do. I'm sure my mom would like to see me on TV."

He "desperately" wants to attend? I find that hard to believe, knowing him as I
do.

I was sorely disappointed when Viggo did not receive the SAG award for best actor.
Of all the awards he has been nominated for this season, I thought his fellow actors
would surely recognize him. He did get a lot of TV air time at the SAG awards, which
was well deserved, and enjoyed by his fans!
