Oscars 2023: Below the Line with P.T. McNiff
Episode description
The final countdown to Oscars Sunday has begun. To discuss all the “below the line” or crafts categories, I invited my colleague, friend, and fellow film history nerd, P.T. McNiff. He really brought his A-game with research, stats, and Oscars history. If you’ve ever wanted to know who songwriter Diane Warren is, he has a comprehensive and definitive answer for you! I also appreciated his supportive advice as I had minor meltdowns with a few categories.
