Peter O’Toole secures eighth Oscar nomination

Irish Actor Peter O’Toole has been nominated for his 8th oscar in the best male category for his leading role in Venus. Let’s hope this is lucky number 8 for Peter.
“To be considered is okay, but it’s not enough; it’s winning the bloody thing that matters,” is a quote that would lead you to believe he really feels it’s about time they gave him an oscar. Some people question whether he would actually turn up to accept it after so many rejections.
Peter O’Toole was previously oscar nominated for:
Lawrence of Arabia (1962),
Becket (1965),
The Lion In Winter (1969),
Goodbye, Mr Chips (1970),
The Ruling Class (1973),
The Stunt Man (1981) and
My Favourite Year (1983).
