Just give it a look! Corrections are welcome!
Thanks a lot! :hello:

Among more than 90 nominations by the Academy Film Awards , independent and cheap productions have been awarded with more than 30 nominations. To better comprehend this sort of phenomenon, it will only take you to consider that colossal such as “The Return of the King”, “Master and Commander” and “Cold Mountain” have picked up 28 candidatures. Among the nominated films, even though not backed by huge amounts of money from film - producing societies, “Lost in Translation” by Sofia Coppola, deserves to be mentioned as one of the most interesting films of the season. The exquisite comedy, noticed at first at the Venice film festival and then at the Golden Globe and now at the Oscar film Awards, has picked up four candidatures (best film, best film director, best protagonist actor, - Bill Murray _ and best script).

Hi Laura,

I passed on your text to my uncle who's the Chief Editorial Consultant of a leading news daily in India (The Hindu). Hereunder you may find the corrected passage:

Among more than 90 nominations for the Academy Film awards, independent and cheap productions account for more than 30. To better comprehend this phenomenon, you have to note that colossal films such as "The Return of the King", "Master and Commander" and "Cold Mountain" have picked up 28 nominations. Among the nominated films, even though not backed by huge amounts of money, "Lost in Translation" by Sofia Coppola, deserves to be mentioned as one of the most interesting of the season. The exquisite comedy, noticed at first at the Venice film festival, has picked up four nominations (best film, best film director, best protagonist actor, - Bill Murray - and best script).
