Oscar Rewind: The Hurt Locker

Well well well, we find ourselves here again at the end of the road. We've been gazing back at this strange group of nominees and sometimes it's hard to see the Oscars we know today in the nominations of the past. The 2010 Best Picture winner, The Hurt Locker, was explosive-pun intended. A woman finally won for Best Director and it took home a lot of other awards that night, however, almost 15 years later we found ourselves asking why?
Listen as we wrap up this part of the season and share our final rankings. Also, stay tuned for a special surprise at the end of today's episode! See y'all later when we do the 2009 Oscars!

*Correction - Kathryn Bigelow directed Detroit after Zero Dark Thirty*
