“And the Oscar doesn’t go to…” is a podcast hosted by Sam Meltzer. Here, Sam and one other guest discuss the films that received Best Picture nominations at the Oscars but failed to take any trophies home on Oscar night. Each episode will cover one specific film as we discuss the film itself and why we think it failed to win anything.
