No, you can win an Oscar for directing a short film, but you can't win an Oscar for starring in a short film.
i read in a magazine that it was because the movie was more directed to teenagers. i guess to win an Oscar it had to be related to all age groups. but seriously, a TON of people watched it, from 7 year olds to 40 year olds. that's a wide age group.
Sadly no, Pather Pachali didn't win an Oscar.
No. He has not won an Oscar.
William Wyler
He did win an Oscar for the lyrics of "Jai Ho" that won Best Original Song. I guess he just wasn't present to collect it himself.
