So it's really a strange mixture without compromising, without being tacky.

Interestingly, I think this event can have an impact on the Oscars race, which is, of course, centered in Los Angeles.

The Oscars ceremony will take place on March 15th.

Because what happens is the Oscars are determined by the 10,000 voting members of the Academy.

And in the last four or five years, they've expanded their membership to include a lot of international members, many of whom here live in Europe.

Those European members will be paying attention to this European Oscars event tonight.

I think the thing is that European cinema has a window of opportunity right now.

Most people who are in the film business would agree that Hollywood no longer really makes many films that engage grown-up audiences.

They do well with family films, films like a Minecraft movie, and this provides...

an opportunity for European filmmakers to get attention for their films.

And I think they're being quite strategic with this event and it could bring fortunes to the European film industry.

The kilt is synonymous with Scotland, a knee-length garment which resembles a pleated skirt.

Traditionally, it's made of wool with a tartan design.

Given that Scottish football fans are known as the Tartan Army and some of them wear kilts when they go overseas, it was assumed by many that the men's team would do the same at this summer's World Cup.

but the players will instead wear traditional suits off the pitch and at formal events.

Some fans welcomed the change, but not Marion Foster, a master kilt tailor.

It's emulated courage.

It increased morale.

It brought belongingness of the team.
