The Dialogue: An Interview with Screenwriter Billy Ray

Edit

Factual errors

Mistakenly thinking that Billy Ray has made a mistake regarding the release year of five major American films, interviewer Mike De Luca incorrectly "corrects" him. De Luca has just asked Ray if he thinks any particular year in the modern Hollywood "Golden Age" of the 1970s was its best year. Rays answer is, "1976." He calls it not just the best year of that decade but "the greatest movie year of all time." He substantiates this claim by pointing out that among the films of that year, the losing nominees for Best Picture at the Oscars were All the President's Men (1976), Bound for Glory (1976), Network (1976), and Taxi Driver (1976). He goes on to say that the winner was Rocky (1976), quickly adding that he's not implying it did not deserve it. Apparently misunderstanding him to be talking about the Oscars ceremonies of 1976 rather than about the year those films came out, De Luca then adds a parenthetical remark identifying 1975 as their release year.
