This 'test' is an interesting way of checking AA nominees and winners in the Best Actor category. However, all the dates are wrong. 1948 should be 1957, 1956 should be 1961, 1965 should be 1966, 1972 should be 1973, and 1978 should be 1979. These are the actual dates of the AA ceremonies. Go to the website www. academy awards. org and carry on with the good work. O Murr (talk) 21:43, 29 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
