Sandra Bullock Deciding If She Wants Another Oscar Nod

Sandra Bullock has reportedly been offered a part in Never Forget, a Holocaust movie based on the documentary On Moral Grounds, about the legal struggles of survivors trying to get restitution from insurance companies after WWII. (Fun fact: Previous feature films with the title Never Forget include a 1991 TV movie about a Holocaust survivor confronting a Holocaust denier, starring Leonard Nimoy and Dabney Coleman, and a Lou Diamond Phillips thriller about a man accused of murder … with amnesia!) Bullock’s been selective about the roles she’s taken since The Blind Side (and the implosion of her personal life), but given the academy’s predilection for honoring Holocaust films — in the immortal words of Kate Winslet and Ricky Gervais, “If you do a film about the Holocaust, you’re guaranteed an Oscar” — she might want to mull this one over.
