The show could have been

THE PASSING SHOW

Also, free now from studio
dominance, the Academy's
selections carried no sugges-
ton of company loyalties be-
hind the voting. Instead, the
implication was that of
thoughtful, serious minded
professionals voting their in
dividual tastes.

even when the winners APP

War in his day and Bill

ways the chance that the
prophets will be wrong.
They proved not to be. of
course, in three of the five
Z major categories.
Bridge" No Surprise
The surest of these on
everyone's form sheet was
Bridge on the River Kwai"
as the years top picture. 1t is
one of Hollywood's all-time
great achievements. It's ma
jor opposition was expected
to come from "Sayonara" and
no doubt this was the case.
Only Price Waterhouse knows
how close the voting was in
this category.
It was not so certain that
Alec Guinness would win the
best actor Oscar. This. too,
in spite Of the fact that
superb pictures and superb
acting usually carry each
other. Guinness was a
towering performance of a
man who was both a hero
and considerably less than a
hero. Yet, it need not have
won for all outrage that
would have followed its
failure to do so.
Voting as pros, instead of
employees under contract with
team. or studio, loyalties, the
Academy's members were adj
mirably consistent in choos-
ing David Lean as best direc-
tor. 1t has not always been
that best direction and best
picture have gone together
in spite of a rather wide
spread conviction that one is
the automatic measure of the
other.
The Academy could not
have been more consistent in
these awards to Bridge on
the River Kwai," to which it
added a logical fourth in its
