With the exception of our feelings about the worth of THE DARK KNIGHT as a best picture nominee (you probably remember how I predicted it would win best picture--I thought it worthy) I'm with you all the way about the ten nominees, song nominees, honorary Oscars given in November (what a semi-insult!), etc. Bullseye, Buddy. Actually they could have gone one more year with ten best picture nominees. 1944 was a good year--maybe if there had been ten spots LAURA, MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS, LIFEBOAT, COVER GIRL and either THE MIRACLE OF MORGAN'S CREEK or HAIL THE CONQUERING HERO (take your pick) would have been in competition for the top prize. GREAT article, John!
