It’s Awards Season yet again. Here on the Holmes Movies Podcast that means, it is time for the Alternative Oscars episodes! AKA the Anders and Adam-emy Awards: Each episode for this series we pick a different year in Oscars history and attempt to correct the record, stripping the undeserving of their garlands while recognizing those who were cruelly overlooked.


This time, we will be casting our eye back to… the 30th Academy Awards, the year that honoured the best films of 1957. It was held March 26th 1958 at the RKO Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles, California. It was hosted by Bob Hope, Rosalind Russell, James Stewart, Jack Lemmon, David Niven and Donald Duck.


David Lean's The Bridge On The River Kwai won 7 awards that night, with Joshua Logan's Sayonara starring Marlon Brando receiving the most nominations. Listen here and find out who we would've picked that night.
