Hmmmm.
I had a very good year in 1917, but so did my co-nominees. Chaplin and Carey were particularly effective, and entertaining.
Why, it's an honor just to be nominated! I'll be happy even if I don't win.
Truly.
You'll note, of course, that that douchebag Chaney isn't nominated here. . . .
1917 was a very good year for you, Doug -- David Bordwell called it a triumph -- but believe it or not, you get even better. I, of course, have no way of knowing how the Academy of Monkey Pictures Arts and Sciences will vote, but if I were a betting man, I'd say tune in for 1920, the year you single-handedly invent the super hero genre with The Mark of Zorro.
But of course that's just a wild guess ...
