“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”
In the first win of the night for the film that entered with the most nominations, art director Burt and set decorator Zolfo won for “Benjamin Button,” a film that spans decades and jumps from Louisiana to Europe and back again. It was the first time both men had been up for an Oscar; the pair had also won a British Academy of Film and Television Arts Award for their work on the film.
Burt thanked the various crews -- in New Orleans, Montreal, St. Thomas and Los Angeles -- as well as the producers, noting that “our producers were great because they did what every producer should ever do, and that’s leave us alone.”
