1967's Oscar Nominees (inspired by "Pictures at a Revolution")

have we rethought these?

I don’t think I was here for the first round, but those numbers look about right to me (still have never seen GWCtD, though).

The vote distribution almost perfectly parallels how the book views the films, I'd say--#2 and #4 could maybe add a couple of more votes each. Still think '75 would make a great sequel: two popular critical successes (Dog Day and winner Cuckoo's Nest), two sprawling auteur films (Nashville and Barry Lyndon--great ones, before the debacles that mark the turn of the decade), and, pointing the way to the future (and a greater film than almost all the massive box-office fare that follows), Jaws.
