If the audience values substance, a circus may still win.
![“I don't remember who wins awards [Oscars]. I've won a few but what I really remember are movies. I love films, so I'm not concerned about speculation about winning things because I really enjoy being in films that last longer than an opening weekend. That's my goal in life.” quote by George Clooney](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/5fb/george-clooney-1132_awards_i-don-t-remember-who-wins-awards-oscars_3020812.jpg)
![“I think probably winning these things [an Oscar] can be a bit of a curse depending on who you are and how you think. But I haven't been on a journey to get anywhere in particular, so that hasn't changed. And my criteria for choosing projects hasn't changed.” quote by Cate Blanchett](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/831/cate-blanchett-864_bits_i-think-probably-winning-these-things-an_1358451.jpg)
