And the Oscar Doesn't Go to...

[melissawyatt]

Worried that your favorite won't win? Or upset they weren't nominated at all? Comfort yourself with the knowledge that historically, the Academy has been wrong before. Very VERY wrong. Witness:

1952

Perhaps the most egregious example of Academy blinking. Best Picture of 1952 according to the Academy? Cecil B. DeMille's The Greatest Show on Earth.

Diana Ross (Lady Sings the Blues) got shafted in favor of Liza Minnelli (Cabaret). That was a NO BRAINER.
