Steven Spielberg and Bill Murray
Saw this over a wikipedia and was wondering if there's actually any truth to this. No citation so it's probably bogus but would be awesome if true.
"Upon seeing his performance at the world premiere, Steven Spielberg spent $250,000 on a campaign to not only get Bill Murray nominated for the Best Leading Actor Academy Award but actually win it. Murray didn't receive a nomination and he on several occasions has attempted to pay Spielberg back, but Spielberg refused."
