We wrap up our look into the 20th Academy Awards but not before we have a chance to check our pulse as we encounter the high strangeness surrounding Christmas. Afterward Ben and Kit encounter the antisemitism of 1947... not sure much has changed since then but maybe there is something to be learned from our last two nominees. Our following films are...

-

The Bishop's Wife

Crossfire

Gentleman's Agreement
