Well, I heard that if a film composer writes a good film score, he can get paid $750,000+ for each film. So Hans composes 3-5 films a year which means he makes over 2 million dollars a year. If you add all his money up for each film, he has a good 90 MILLION DOLLARS!!

When did Titanic win an Oscar?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Titanic (1997) won 11 Academy Awards at the 70th Academy Awards on Monday, March 23, 1998. Billy Crystal hosted the ceremony for the sixth time, and later received an Emmy award for his performance. Titanic dominated the evening, picking up 11 awards out of 14 nominations. The film tied All About Eve(1950) for the most overall nominations and Ben-Hur (1959) for the most wins. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) later matched the latter record. Due to the popularity of Titanic, which was still the #1 movie at the box office at the time, the Academy Awards earned its highest television ratings in history based on audience size (57.25 million).
