My second cousin won his SECOND Oscar for sound this year.....I have watched (listened) to Michael Minkler's career for 20+ years, and have watched the Oscars many times JUST for the best sound award. Last years win for Black Hawk Down was so amazing; this year's win for Chicago was the culmination of a lifetime's dream; to produce an award-winning musical. I remeber,in the summer of '59, going to the local movie house with Michael and his sisters to see Journey to the Center of the Earth. I was 8; he was younger.... Third generation sound man......
