Mrs. Miniver and the 15th Academy Awards

The Best Picture breakdown by Worthy hosts, Ben Smith and Jon Roberts, focuses on propaganda films in this episode. The 1942 film and 15th Best Picture winner “Mrs. Miniver” became a rallying cry for American and British audiences during World War Two. The reflection on the importance of that moment in time led to the film’s box office success.

This episode on “Mrs. Miniver” also focuses on the performances of the main cast, which includes five total nominations in the Best Acting & Supporting Acting categories combined. Is Greer Garson’s acceptance speech really the longest in Oscar history? Check out this week's episode!
