Does it help solve the quandary if I join in? Now that I've seen how the game works I'd like to throw my hat in. But I'm also happy to wait for another year...

After Sabin we will all have had a chance, but there will be less than ten nominees per category - nine in most, though some including best actress will have less. What is the procedure from here on out? Do we continue in the original order until we have ten in each category, do we toss a coin so to speak to see who gets the honor or do we each get to make one pick?

Penelope - the Jesus Christ Superstar released in 1972 was a Filipino film unrelated to the musical that was never shown outside the Phillipines. Since I'm reasonably sure you thought you were nominating the Andrew Llpoyd Webebr-Tim Rice musical, which was released in 1973, another choice for best sound might be in order.

I'll go ahead and remove Murmur of the Heart from my Orig. Screenplay list and I won't replace it since I didn't really have a choice left there anyway.

Limelight is ineligible - we're counting it as 1952 when it was released everywhere except in L.A.

The New Land is Ok.
As for Limelight, I´m going to replace it with Fellini´s Roma.
