<p>A mercifully brief addendum to Episode 26 ("Undeserved Oscar Winners"), where I respond to some comments about that episode (and offer some thoughts on the very-much-deserved Oscars for The Godfather movies and The Best Years of Our Lives) and talk about a movie (the Farrelly brother's great Green Book) that I would have talked about in that episode if it hadn't already been a billion hours long.</p>

A discussion of some of the film critics (and other kinds of critics and writers) who have had an influence on my own approach to thinking about and talking about movies.

I discuss some of the reasons people like to argue about the Oscars, and focus in on arguments about undeserved winners. I discuss why I think movies such as How Green Was My Valley, Dances with Wolves, and Going My Way, still "deserve" their best picture wins, despite winning over arguably better movies. I also white knight for some movies that aren't quite as good but still strike me as being unfairly targeted as undeserving (like Crash and The Greatest Show on Earth). I still end up not finding too much good to say about Shakespeare in Love, though.
