I'm abstaining from this one inasmuch as I don't think I've ever seen the winner, or if I have, I don't remember it.

2) I believe it's The Gay Deception, not The Gay Desperado, that was nominated here.
1) It's listed on Oscar.com as well as the IMDb. and Tom O'Neil's Movie Awards (pub. 2003)
2) Well, I knew it wasn't The Gay Divorcée.
