Another random fact about the Oscars…
The nominees for best picture for this years Oscar ceremony were:
Milk
The Reader
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Slumdog Millionaire
Frost/Nixon
Now, look closely – can you notice what these movie titles have in common?
I will give you a hint, the last time the Best Picture nominees had the same thing in common was in 1964 when the following films were up for the Academy’s biggest award:
Mary Poppins
My Fair Lady
Becket
Zorba the Great
Dr. Strangelove
Still don’t have the answer?
Here it is: Each of the 10 titles above refer to the main character(s) in each of the films.
I thought that was interesting and so will any other movie nerd.
