Unofficial Academy Awards Discussion Board

Oscar Guy is up with 3 nominations left. If it were up to me I would preserve General Della Rovere in original screenplay and Babes in Toyland in best scoring of a musical.

Best Original Score: Night Journey I don't think so. The IMDB shows no release date for this 29 minute Martha Graham documentary dance short filmed in 1960. Was it even released theatrically?
