De Niro nabs Stanley Kubrick Award

In Hollywood, the word "complicated" has two general meanings. The first refers to someone as "difficult" -- a pain-in-the-prat. The other refers to someone whose working process is intricate enough to try everyone's patience, but in the end delivers something good enough to make you glad they didn't hire someone else.
