It's time for the Oscars! Or part of them, whatever they actually decide to air – which mostly seems the awards that pretty people will win. Which is fine, that's their job -- and it's our job is to tell you random facts about Oscar winners of days past. Someday soon we'll do another list like this and it'll feature all the films that win tonight, so let's hope anything interesting actually wins. Hopefully no one too interesting shows up, though.
