Got it with all but the song... but the years seem to be off by one, along with the first circled blank.

years are fine... the first bubble should be the 3rd from the end, not fourth, and 3rd line should be from the movie in which it was from, not the guy who made it.

Quite a few errors here. The bubble is one thing, But some are from different years than listed. Check http://www.oscars.org/awardsdatabase/index.html.

That and some luck will get the answer.

plus thats a much easier site to navigate

Using both sites, I found the answers, filled in the blanks, and the circles aren't right (at least not to get the word that's the answer). I finally got fed up and put in what I thought it would be and it's an easily guessed answer.

The puzzle doesn't state whether the year refers to the year of the picture or the award, which are different. It is in this arena that they are different. Each one is right in one or the other. This is why many will get the second and third letters wrong. Using the actual source of the information and not peer reviewed sites is a lesson I learned.

IMDB is your friend tonight.

Using the year given as the year awarded, I was able to get answers that fill the blanks. The only problem is, the circle on the first one is not on the correct blank and the third answer doesn't have the correct letter in it. Weird.

Edit - for the 3rd I went with the other answer that has the same number of letters and is the winner, but not exactly.

Years appear to be years of the oscar ceremony. IE 2005 oscar was the awars show that was in february/march 2005. Plus the actor one has the wrong letter circled.
