TCM Schedule for Fri, Feb 7, 2025: 30 Days of Oscar - Day 7

Daytime films appear to be selected by Oscar category, i.e.. "Best Original Song," where as evening films are selected by subject matter. There aren't categories tying tonights lineup together other than that they were either all nominated for some kind of Oscar, or won. Odd way to program IMO.
