 In 2007, Paramount Vantage partnered with then-Disney subsidiary Miramax Films on two of the year's most highly regarded movies, "No Country for Old Men" and "There Will Be Blood".Both films garnered eight nominations at the Academy Awards, with "There Will Be Blood" winning the awards for Best Cinematography and Best Actor for Daniel Day-Lewis, while "No Country for Old Men" won for Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor for Javier Bardem, and Best Picture.Despite its critical success, Paramount Vantage continually failed to deliver the financial returns Paramount Pictures expected.
