For the umpteenth time, here are the nominees for the Retro Hollmann Awards - this time, covering 1931-32.
A note: While the Fifth Academy Awards only had nine feature film categories, with the number of nominees in each fluctuating (but never five!), I have the full 18 regular Hollmann Awards categories here, five nominees per category. The order below was determined by random drawing.
