It was the year of Nicole Kidman winning by a nose, Michael Moore getting booed, and Roman Polanski getting a standing ovation in absentia — every Oscar year has its weirdness, but 2003 might be hard to top. A look back at the ceremony that took place days after the invasion of Iraq, with Ben Affleck, Jennier Lopez, and Jennifer Garner all in attendance. Truly a time to be alive.
The episode also includes discussion of the BAFTA and DGA winners, and a look ahead at this weekend's PGA and SAG Awards.

Interview: Kazuo Ishiguro (Living)
The Nobel Prize-winning author grew up adoring the films of Akira Kurosawa — but he also didn't hesitate to make major changes when adapting Kurosawa's Ikiru into Living, which has now earned both him and star Bill Nighy their first Oscar nominations.
