The Sound of Music was the first Best Picture winner without a screenwriting nomination since Hamlet, and would be the last until Titanic at the 70th Academy Awards. Othello became the third film (of four to date) to receive four acting nominations without one for Best Picture. William Wyler received the last of his record twelve Best Director nominations for The Collector.
The ceremony was unsuccessful at starting a rivalry between Julie Christie and Julie Andrews, the two British contenders for Best Actress.[1] It also contained what was described as a "moving" film from Patricia Neal, then recovering from a severe, near-fatal, stroke.[1]
