No. His role was nowhere near enough to gain such an achievement. It would have been very surprising if he had won an oscar. Although his role was played greatly, his role was also a small one -- not merely large enough to be noticed as a supporting actor. [/b]Welcome Don Chater. I agree with you partly. In the sense that there were other wonderful actors nominated for best supporting role along with Gazzo - Talia Shire(Connie) and Lee Strasberg(Roth). But only Lee Strasberg was in the male category. I don't know who the other nominees were for other movies. But given a choice between Gazzo and Lee, I would pick Gazzo.
