Diane Keaton, Woody Allen in Manhattan Oscar Nomination Snub #10 Michael Nyman for The Piano (1993), The End of the Affair (1999) Gordon Willis for The Godfather (1972), The Godfather Part II (1974), All the President’s Men (1976), Annie Hall (1977), Manhattan (1979), etc. Caleb Deschanel for The Black Stallion (1979), Being There (1979) Those nominated — or not nominated — in the "technical" categories tend to be ignored by most of the media and Oscarwatchers in general. So, it’s not like there was widespread screaming, eye-rolling, and gnashing of teeth over the fact that Michael Nyman’s haunting scores, and Caleb Deschanel’s and Gordon Willis‘ masterful camerawork failed to receive Academy Award nominations a while back. Even so, many were outraged. "I have [...] »

Hollywood star's sexual conquests said to have included Isabelle Adjani, Diane Keaton and Madonna
It may not be one of the great remaining mysteries, on a par with the nature of dark matter or the origins of the universe, but the question of how many women Warren Beatty, 72, has slept with certainly seems to have got New York's media-land in a froth.
Peter Biskind, Beatty's new biographer, estimates that the famously seductive star of Bonnie and Clyde and Reds has notched up 12,775 sexual conquests, including Isabelle Adjani, Diane Keaton and Madonna. If true, that is impressive. Don Giovanni could only claim a lacklustre 2,065, according to Mozart's librettist, Lorenzo Da Ponte.
Biskind writes in his book, Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America, that he arrived at the figure by "simple arithmetic". He appears to have worked out the number of days between Beatty losing his virginity at 19 and the date »

The Hollywood star - who married actress Annette Bening in March 1992 – reportedly averaged a different partner every day for the three-and-a-half decades he was single. According to Peter Biskind, who has written a revealing biography on the legendary lothario entitled 'Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America', Warren lost his virginity at 20 and seduced thousands of ladies. The author made his estimate based on "simple arithmetic". Biskind said: "There were 12,775 women, give or take – a figure that does not include daytime quickies, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on." It is also claimed the 72-year-old actor – who has been romantically linked to Natalie Wood, Diane Keaton and Madonna, among many others – proved too much for Joan Collins. He wrote: "He made love to Joan Collins relentlessly. But for Collins it was too much of a good thing. One Sunday morning, exhausted, she stumbled out of bed. "Dragging on a forbidden cigarette, »

Hollywood legend Warren Beatty has slept with over 12,775 women, a new biography claims. Author Peter Biskind says he based the number of the 72-year-old actor's conquests on "simple arithmetic."
In his book "Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America," biographer Biskind claims that the estimated figure of 12,775 "does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on."
The author told the New York Post that Beatty was an "equal-opportunity seducer," who had a variety of attractive and unattractive women coming in and out of his room.
Bisking listed Jane Fonda, Joan Collins, Julie Christie, Diane Keaton, Janice Dickinson, and Madonna as some of Beatty's celebrity lovers before he was tamed by "Bugsy" co-star Annette Bening, whom he married in 1992.

Actor Warren Beatty has slept with more than 12,000 women, according to a new authorised biography of the legendary Hollywood lothario.
Beatty has enjoyed high profile romances with Madonna, Jane Fonda, Diane Keaton, Joan Collins, Julie Christie and his current wife Annette Bening - but writer Peter Biskind claims the 72 year old secretly seduced thousands of women during his heyday.
In Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America, Biskind estimates the actor has been with "12,775 women, give or take, a figure that does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, stolen kisses and so on."
Biskind, who wrote the biography after candid chats with the Bonnie and Clyde star, lifts the lid on his subject's many famous lovers, and his legendary stamina for sex.
The author claims older partner Joan Collins ditched Beatty because his insatiable appetite wore her out, and he only met his match when he met the much-younger Madonna on the set of 1990 movie Dick Tracy. The pair dated, but the Material Girl's close pal Sandra Bernhard reveals Beatty struggled to keep up with the party-loving pop star.
Bernhard tells Biskind, "We would taunt him, say things to make him feel uncomfortable. He was the perfect target, because he played the befuddled old man with her."
Biskind adds, "Beatty, a man who was accustomed to being worshipped by women, was on dangerous ground with Madonna." »

But the author did get him to spill the beans on some of his most famous conquests. Mr Biskind writes in the book, Star: How Warren Beatty Seduced America: 'How many women were there?' 'Easier to count the stars in the sky,' Beatty replies. Making his estimate based on 'simple arithmetic', Beatty adds: '[There were] 12,775 women, give or take, a figure that does not include daytime quickies, drive-bys, casual gropings, »
