Expensive. And not even doable, I imagine.

I'd rather see a collective grouping of Best Picture nominees for any single year. Take 1939, for example. TCM controls all the title below. This would be an outstanding line-up for the day.

GONE WITH THE WIND
DARK VICTORY
GOODBYE, MR. CHIPS
LOVE AFFAIR
MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON
NINOTCHKA
OF MICE AND MEN
STAGECOACH
THE WIZARD OF OZ
WUTHERING HEIGHTS
