Deserving of Academy Awards

The following people have never won Oscars, but are long overdue:
Robert Altman
Ingmar Bergman
Federico Fellini
Cary Grant
Stanley Kubrick
Akira Kurosawa
Sergio Leone
Sidney Lumet
Peter O'Toole
Laura Linney has been nominated for acting in 3 different films. She deserves the trophy for The Savages, this year.
Also, sound guy, Kevin O'Connell has 20 nominations and zero wins. I am pulling for him, this year.

Bergman won three Best Foreign Language Picture Oscars. Grant, Fellini, Altman, + O'Toole have all received Lifetime Achievement awards many years ago. Some might argue such awards are actually superior to the fickle + frequently wildly misguided tastes of Oscar voters. Those other guys should have gotten them, though. Linney still will, I'm sure.
