Oscar Turnherr (Austria) sued for naming his cinema after himself
Sometimes I really question myself how far we have gone allready.
In Vorarlberg, the state in the furthest west of Austria there exists a cinema in the city of Feldkirch that has been called "Oscar Kino" (Oscar cinema). And that allready for over 20 years. The name is not really far fetched as the founder and owner of it is Oscar Turnherr.
Now the Academy that nominates and organizes the Oscar prizes sued Oscar Turnherr for that. His name is not worth as much as their market rights, he had to change the name. Allthough he tries to reach a compromise with the academy in the meanwhile the cinema has a new name:
Its called "Namenlos" (without a name)
