Samuel L. Jackson Says Edits to 'A Time to Kill' Cost Him an Oscar Nomination

Samuel L. Jackson believes important scenes were cut from 'A Time to Kill' that would have highlighted his acting and earned him an Oscar nomination.
Jackson feels the editing choices prevented audiences and the Academy from fully appreciating the depth of his performance.
He expressed frustration that scenes showcasing pivotal character moments were removed in favor of the overall story.
Despite nominations for 'Pulp Fiction' and other major roles, Jackson has never won an Oscar for acting.
He sees similar editing choices diminishing performances in other films and robbing actors of career-changing awards recognition.
