1964 looks like a very strong year for movies!

I thought Ustinov would maintain his win!

YAAAAY! :D This is a strong year, isn't it? The winner was fantastic, at least.

What's next? I would be very interested in 1982. :D

I think it will be one of the 00's year next, maybe 2005 or 2008?

Dinasztie: A very strong year, I year with one great performances and 4 solid ones is always much better than a year with 2 great performances, and 3 bad ones.

I will keep 81 in mind.

Anonymous: It will be in the 00's but it won't be either of those years yet.
