## Awards

[edit]

The Hurt Locker, starring Jeremy Renner took home six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Screenplay in 2009. Dallas Buyers Club, directed by Jean-Marc Vallée and starring Matthew McConaughey, Jared Leto and Jennifer Garner. The film received three Academy Awards, including Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor, and two Golden Globes, again in the two acting categories.

## Piracy

[edit]

In 2014, Voltage Pictures filed a slew of "John Doe" lawsuits against individuals they accused of torrenting the film Dallas Buyers Club, which Voltage had produced.[1]

In 2018, it was discovered that Voltage was attempting to sue 55,000 Canadians for sharing their films online.[2] Policy experts have called this move a case of copyright trolling.[3]
