supports: Jesus of Montreal is a 1989 French Canadian comedy-drama film written and directed by Denys Arcand, and starring Lothaire Bluteau, Catherine Wilkening and Johanne-Marie Tremblay. The film tells the story of a group of actors in Montreal who perform a Passion play in a Quebec church, combining religious belief with unconventional theories on a historical Jesus. As the church turns against the main actor and author of the play, his life increasingly mirrors the story of Jesus, and the film adapts numerous stories from the New Testament. The Decline of the American Empire ( French : Le Déclin de l'empire américain ) is a 1986 Canadian comedy - drama film directed by Denys Arcand . It was followed by two sequels , The Barbarian Invasions in 2003 and Days of Darkness in 2007 .

He has also been nominated three further times, including two nominations in the same category for "The Decline of the American Empire" in 1986 and "Jesus of Montreal" in 1989, becoming the only French-Canadian director in history to receive this number of nominations and, subsequently, to win the award.
