It took 80 years for an austrian movie to get an oscar: Die Fälscher (The Counterfeiters) from Stefan Ruzowitzky.

You may think what you want about the Oscars, i´m proud that an austrian movie made it, probably more Austrians are more willing to watch austrian movies from now on, let´s hope so.

And furthermore different politicians announced to raise movie-fundings, so that Oscar isn´t just a huge honor, it´s a great promotion for all of the austrian moviemakers and hopefully will lead to better support from moviegoers and the state.
