Re-Oscared episode 005: 1995

Uma, Oprah. Oprah, Uma. The 1995 Academy Awards ceremony was a fun one thanks to the discomfort of its host David Letterman. The nominees were an interesting group, too, with more traditional Hollywood fare like Forrest Gump and Nobody's Fool sharing equal billing with the soon-to-explode independent movement embodied by Quentin Tarantino and his groundbreaking film Pulp Fiction. Did the voting members get it right? We break it all down in this episode, along with a discussion about a handful of other great films from the year.
