Oscars circa 1974

THE FUTURIST!'s favorite film is CHINATOWN, so he has a fondness for the Academy Awards of 1974. It was a Golden Year of nominees ... well, there was THE TOWERING INFERNO, of course ... but nominees that year were AMARCORD, THE CONVERSATION, MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS, YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN, LENNY, BLAZING SADDLES, A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE, DAY FOR NIGHT, ALICE DOESN'T LIVE HERE ANYMORE, THE GODFATHER PART II and HARRY AND TONTO.
