Things We Learned on Twitter Today- Godard May Be Present for the Oscars



"Interview" magazine tweeted this morning that the legendary, and often off-beat French film director Jean-Luc Godard may very well be present when he is the reciepent of a lifetime achievement Oscar.

In a statement to the academy, Godard, perhaps best known for his 1959 film "Breathless," said that he is hoping to recieve his honorary lifetime Oscar in person.

Other lifetime reciepents of the award will include fellow film director Francis Ford Coppola, who has actually won the award for film directing, and actor Eli Wallach.

There were rumors that Godard was not planning to attend the Oscars.
