The 3rd Academy Awards has been the best set so far because they moved beyond their reactionary fascination with sound. I’m sure there were still a lot of movies during this time that were devoid of story, but at least they weren’t being applauded with awards. This is still not a perfect set. I disliked more of them than I liked, but they were more interesting at least. Also it’s always a nice feeling when the best movie wins the prize.
