Sid Ganis, President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, announced The Oscars are going old school as far as the Best Picture category is concerned. There will now be 10 pictures looking to grab Oscar around the mid section instead of 5 on March 7th, 2010.
“After more than six decades, the Academy is returning to some of its earlier roots, when a wider field competed for the top award of the year,” said Ganis. “The final outcome, of course, will be the same – one Best Picture winner – but the race to the finish line will feature 10, not just five, great movies from 2009.”
